Hi Vito,

I don't remember the reason of why this happens, but I faced this problem
in the past. The solution I ended up with was creating a wall (hard
reordering contraint) after each xml tag. Following your example:


*echo '<np translation="and, on the monday , the tallboy on its back by the
bed , and the dressing table on its face by the door">and, on the monday ,
the tallboy on its back by the bed , and the dressing table on its face by
the door</np><wall/>' | /mosesdecoder/bin/moses -f moses.ini -xml-input
exclusive > translation*

Hope this helps.

Best regards,

Miguel
