Description

Be used to import the method and apparatus of Chinese character phrase
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of character input method and equipment, relate in particular to a kind of method and apparatus that is used to import Chinese character phrase.
Background technology
In the equipment of current widespread usage, the button that is used to carry out on the keyboard of input in Chinese is identified by English alphabet, such as English qwerty keyboard.In underway when input literary composition, a kind of method is to utilize the quantity of Chinese pinyin/phonetic notation to be less than the characteristics of Chinese character quantity far away, carries out the input of Chinese character by the corresponding relation of Chinese phonetic alphabet/phonetic symbol and Chinese character.Wherein, phonetic symbol is meant the symbol that is used to mark Chinese-character pronunciation that the Taiwan makes, and it comprises initial consonant, simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable, in conjunction with simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable and four parts of tone.Each Chinese phonetic alphabet/phonetic symbol can be only corresponding with an English alphabet, and each English alphabet can be only corresponding with a Chinese phonetic alphabet/phonetic symbol, promptly can set up one-to-one relationship between Chinese phonetic alphabet/phonetic symbol and English alphabet.
In this Chinese character input method, at first set up the above-mentioned one-to-one relationship between the English alphabet and Chinese phonetic alphabet or phonetic symbol on the keyboard, like this, the button of the English alphabet sign by pushing Chinese phonetic alphabet on the keyboard or phonetic symbol correspondence successively, just can correspondingly import Chinese pinyin/phonetic notation, Chinese pinyin/phonetic notation with input converts Chinese character to then, thereby finishes the input of Chinese character.
In the reality, utilize said method, existing a lot of equipment can be realized the input of Chinese character individual character, or even the Chinese character phrase input.Chinese character individual character input is meant that an input operation can only import a Chinese character, and the Chinese character phrase input is meant that an input operation can import a Chinese character phrase.Such as, import Chinese character " in ", at first import Chinese pinyin " zhong ", push the input that selection key can be finished this Chinese character then.Import Chinese character phrase " China ", at first import Chinese pinyin " zhongguo ", push the input that selection key can be finished this Chinese character phrase then.Here alleged " input operation " is meant that the button one or many of pressing the English alphabet sign is with after carrying out the information input, press the predetermined affirmation button complete procedure once that is used to confirm the input information content again, support the Chinese character phrase input from supporting the Chinese character individual character to be input to, the Chinese character input method has experienced the process of a development, and this change makes the efficient of Chinese character input improve greatly.
Yet, up to the present, support the equipment of Chinese character phrase input also to only limit to such as the English qwerty keyboard that is used for personal computer etc., wherein on such keyboard, each button only corresponds respectively to an English alphabet or symbol, that is, for the Chinese character input, each button only corresponds respectively to a Chinese phonetic alphabet/phonetic symbol.When using this keyboard to carry out the Chinese character input, the user can import Chinese phonetic alphabet/phonetic symbol by the button of directly pressing on the pairing keyboard of Chinese phonetic alphabet/phonetic symbol easily according to waiting to import the corresponding Chinese pinyin/phonetic notation of Chinese character individual character/Chinese character phrase.Because this keyboard provides unique input button for each Chinese phonetic alphabet/phonetic symbol, so the operation that the user pushes button at every turn can be uniquely corresponding to a definite Chinese phonetic alphabet/phonetic symbol, thereby can be easily provide selectable Chinese character individual character/Chinese character phrase for the user, select the back to confirm the content of input by the user according to the Chinese pinyin/phonetic notation of this input.
Though can import single Chinese character or Chinese character phrase easily by above-mentioned keyboard, but, for number of keys portable set seldom, such as mobile phone, because the various Chinese character input methods of the restriction prior art of processing speed and memory span but exist very big restriction.
As everyone knows, along with constantly popularizing of mobile phone, the ITU-T keyboard has obtained using widely.The ITU-T keyboard is a kind of QWERTY keyboard, and it mainly comprises numerical key 0-9.These numerical keys can be used for importing telephone number.And some numerical keys are corresponding to 26 letters and be used to import these letters.Such as, numerical key 2 is represented A, B and C; 3 represent D, E and F; 4 represent G, H and I, and 5 represent J, K and L; 6 represent M, N and O; 7 represent P, Q, R and S; 8 represent T, U and V; And 9 represent W, X, Y and Z.
Therefore, in order to import Chinese pinyin, only use above-mentioned several button very inconvenient to mobile phone.Because number of keys is limited, the corresponding a plurality of English alphabets of each button.Like this, import a predetermined English alphabet, may need once or several times by next button.Such as, input single letter " s " may require the user to push numerical key 7 four times.In order to import a correct Chinese character individual character, inerrably import two or three Chinese phonetic alphabet/phonetic symbols may not be a nothing the matter, even also there is similar problem in the input English word on mobile phone.
On this ITU-T keyboard, realized at present by clicking input mode input Pinyin letter/phonetic symbol.What is called is clicked input and is meant in input process, for each English alphabet to be imported or phonetic alphabet/phonetic symbol, only press once by the button of corresponding English alphabet sign, treat inputting English letter or phonetic alphabet/phonetic symbol corresponding key by pressing successively, obtain corresponding English alphabet string, according to this English alphabet string or phonetic/phonetic symbol are carried out the fuzzy logic analysis judgement, show the English alphabet string that meets word-building law or phonetic/phonetic notation rule, can further process the English alphabet string as required then, comprise the Chinese character of exporting or searching coupling according to the English alphabet string.Such as, import Chinese character " in " pairing phonetic alphabet " zhong ", only need push successively numerical key 9,4,2,6 and 4 each once just can finish the input of this Chinese pinyin.
Utilize this input mode of clicking of ITU-T keyboard to realize Chinese character individual character input function, but because the processing speed of portable set and the restriction of memory span, it does not also support the Chinese character phrase input, makes that the input in Chinese efficient of this equipment is relatively low.
Therefore,, make the user, can import Chinese character phrase easily by the keyboard on the mobile phone there is a need in the field to provide a kind of new Chinese character input method and device.
