Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent selection of erroneous words even in the case of uncertain knowledge about the meaning or an example sentence of a word or the existence of plural homonyms by displaying not only a word corresponding to reading information but also meaning information and/or example sentence information corresponding to this word at the time of input of reading information. CONSTITUTION:When reading information is inputted with KANA (Japanese syllabary), corresponding words are successively read out from a first dictionary memory 12 in accordance with read order information, and meaning information and/or example sentence information corresponding to words read out from the first dictionary memory 12 are read out from a second dictionary memory 14 by a second read means 24. These read meaning information and/or example sentence information corresponding to words are displayed on a display part 30. Conversion to a desired word is determined by the operation of a settling key. Selection of erroneous KANJI (Chinese character) is prevented even if knowledge of the meaning or the example sentence of KANJI is uncertain or plural homonyms exist.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to an improvement in a kana-kanji conversion processing device such as a word processor.

``Prior art'' In conventional kana-kanji conversion processing devices (for example, word processors), as shown in Figure 6, the reading information of four middle-class words including kanji is inputted by manual operation of kana, and the reading information of 4 words including kanji is inputted using the kanji conversion operation. The desired kanji is read from the dictionary memory and displayed on the display, and if there are multiple homonyms, they are displayed one by one by pressing a predetermined key, the desired word is determined by pressing the confirm key, and the sentence is memorized. For example, if you enter the pronunciation information ``Taisho'' or ``Kansei'' that has multiple homonyms manually and press the conversion key,
Corresponding kanji ``symmetric'', ``contrast'', ``object'' 1 big win'',
``Caravan'', ..., ``Completion'', ``Government'', ``Government'', ``Quiet'', 1 Cheer J, ``Shout'', ``Dry J, R Sensibility'', ry
"control", "inertia", etc. are displayed in a predetermined display order, and by pressing the confirmation key, a predetermined kanji (for example, "object" or "sensibility") is selected and stored in the text storage section. .

[The problem that the invention aims to solve] However, the conventional kana-kanji conversion processing device only displays the corresponding kanji in a predetermined display order based on the input of reading information, and does not display the meaning of the kanji or example sentences (example sentences). ) was not displayed, so there was a problem that it was easy to select the wrong kanji when the user was uncertain about the meaning or example sentences of the kanji, or when there were multiple homonyms.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, such as when the knowledge of the meanings and example sentences of kanji is uncertain. It is an object of the present invention to provide a kana-kanji conversion processing device that does not select the wrong kanji even when there are a plurality of homonyms.

[Means to solve the problem] The first kana-kanji conversion processing device according to the present invention is as follows.

an input section, a first dictionary memory that stores reading information and reading order information about a large number of words including kanji, and semantic information and/or example sentence information about the words stored in the first dictionary memory. a second dictionary memory storing a second dictionary memory; a first reading means for sequentially reading words corresponding to reading information inputted from the input unit from the first dictionary memory according to reading order information; and the first reading means. a second reading means for reading semantic information and/or example sentence information corresponding to the word read out from the second dictionary memory; and reading the word read out by the first reading means and the second reading means. The present invention is characterized by comprising a display unit that displays the semantic information and/or example sentence information that has been issued.

A second kana-kanji conversion processing device according to the present invention is as follows.

a first dictionary memory storing reading information and reading order information for a large number of words including kanji;
A second dictionary memory stores semantic information and/or example sentence information about the words stored in the first dictionary memory, and words corresponding to the reading information input from the input section are read out according to the reading order information. a first reading means for sequentially reading from the first dictionary memory; a determining means for determining whether or not the number of words read by the first reading means is plural; Semantic information corresponding to the word read out by the reading means; and
and/or a second reading means for reading example sentence information from the second dictionary memory, and a word read by the first reading means and semantic information and/or example sentence information read by the second reading means. The device is characterized by comprising a display section for displaying information.

[Operation] In the first kana-kanji conversion processing device of the present invention, reading information (
t, that is, 1) is input, the corresponding words are sequentially read out from the first dictionary memory by the first reading means according to the reading order information, and the semantic information corresponding to the word read out from the first dictionary memory is inputted. and/or the example sentence information is read out from the second dictionary memory by the second reading means, and the meaning information and/or example sentence information corresponding to the read words are displayed on the display section. Conversion to a desired word is then determined by operating the confirmation key as in the conventional example.

On the other hand, in the second kana-kanji conversion processing device of the present invention, when reading information is input, the first reading means sequentially reads the corresponding words from the first dictionary memory according to the reading order information. The determining means determines whether the number is plural. If there is a homonym, there is a discrimination output, so the second reading means reads out the semantic information and/or information corresponding to the word read out by the first reading means.
Alternatively, example sentence information is read from the second dictionary memory. These read words, semantic information, and/or example sentence information are displayed on the display section. Conversion to a desired word is then determined by operating the confirmation key as in the conventional example.
