thanks for your answer Jim! I've modified the entries, so:

- en.metadix:
<pardef n="Aachen__np"><e><p><l/><r><s n="np"/><s
n="sg"/></r></p></e></pardef>
<e lm="Yekaterinburg"><i>Yekaterinburg</i><par n="Aachen__np"/></e>

- es.dix:
<pardef n="Aquisgrán__np"><e><p><l/><r><s n="np"/><s n="m"/><s
n="sg"/></r></p></e></pardef>
<e lm="Ekaterimburgo"><i>Ekaterimburgo</i><par n="Aquisgrán__np"/></e>

- en-es.dix:
<e><p><l>Yekaterinburg<s n="np"/></l><r>Ekaterimburgo<s n="np"/><s
n="m"></r></p></e>


but still no luck with en->es:

echo "Yekaterinburg" | apertium-destxt | lt-proc en-es.automorf.bin |
apertium-tagger -g en-es.prob | apertium-pretransfer | apertium-transfer
apertium-en-es.en-es.t1x en-es.t1x.bin en-es.autobil.bin
^nom<SN><UNDET><m><sg>{^Ekaterimburgo<3><4>$}$^punt<sent>{^.<sent>$}$[][
]

es->en is ok as before:

echo "Ekaterimburgo" | apertium-destxt | lt-proc es-en.automorf.bin |
apertium-tagger -g es-en.prob | apertium-pretransfer | apetium-transfer
apertium-en-es.es-en.t1x es-en.t1x.bin  es-en.autobil.bin
^default<default>{^Yekaterinburg<np><sg>$}$^punt<sent>{^.<sent>$}$[][
]

thanks!
