I think you are confused about how to build language models.  You 
typically create LMs directly from ngram counts extracted from a corpus, 
with no need to build lattices.
Please consult the file $SRILM/doc/lm-intro for the most basic 
procedures, and the FAQ file and recommended text books for more details.
