In addition, the control method of the language learning apparatus having a single memory of the present invention for achieving the above object is a control method of a digital learning apparatus for reproducing the original sound data and the sound source data applied from the outside, the original sound data stored in the memory Setting a predetermined period by the start point and the end point according to the key operation while the music is being played; After the interval setting is specified, generating a recording file for recording sound source data applied from the outside, recording the sound source data and completing the recording file according to the stop of input of the sound source data; And reproducing the contents of the section-set sound source data and the sound source data of the user recorded in the recording file.

Here, the original sound data and the sound source data are stored in one memory device.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a block diagram of a language learning apparatus having a single memory according to the present invention.

As shown here, the memory unit 100 stores various digitized information downloaded from a computer through an external storage medium or an internet website, for example, a music file or foreign language original sound data for language learning and sound source data applied through a microphone. A function key unit 130 and the function key unit for performing functions such as reproducing and stopping the stored original sound data and sound source data through a key input or recording the sound source data in the memory unit 100. The display unit 120 displaying text information of various states or data according to the manipulation, the controller 110 controlling the operation of each component and the peripheral device, and the memory according to the control operation of the controller 110. The digital signal processor 140 restores the data stored in the unit 100 to a digital signal, and the digital signal processor 140 restores the digital signal. A digital / analog converter 150 for converting the scrambled data into analog data, an amplifier 160 for amplifying the analog data converted by the digital / analog converter 150 to a predetermined level and outputting the analog data to a speaker, and the sound source When the data is input through the microphone, the filter unit 170 for removing no signal of the analog data, the analog input through the filter unit so that the input data is stored in the memory unit 100 according to the operation of the control unit 110 An analog / digital conversion unit 180 for converting data into digital data is included.

Here, the function key unit 130 includes a selection key 130a for selecting original sound data for listening among the original sound data stored in the memory unit 100, a playback key 130b for reproducing the selected original sound data, and the original sound. A recording key 130c for recognizing the start point and the end point of a specific section of the original sound data while the data is being reproduced, and recording the sound source data of the user applied through a microphone, and the original sound being stored and reproduced according to the operation of the recording key. And a stop key 130d for stopping data and sound source data.

In particular, the recording key 130c is sequentially provided with a function for recognizing the start and end points of the original sound data and stopping the user's voice recording whenever the key is operated. When the recording key 130c is operated, the control unit 110 receiving an operation signal is displayed on the display unit 120 so that the user can recognize the start point and the end point. For example, the control unit 110 displays the start point and the end point by an icon or the like when the reproduction state of the original sound data is displayed by numbers or drawings.

The operation of the present invention configured as described above will be described with reference to FIG.

First, a plurality of original sound data (foreign language, etc.) digitized at a predetermined storage address of the memory unit 100 of the digital language learning apparatus of the present invention is stored through an external storage medium or an internet network through a USB port. Such original sound data is stored in a predetermined area of the memory unit 100 so as not to be modified or redundantly stored unless it is deleted.

In the state in which the original sound data is stored in the memory unit 100, the user executes a function for storing and comparing his / her own voice with the original sound data by a separate operation. In the present invention, as described below, a function of storing a user voice in a state where original sound data is stored and reproducing the data is referred to as a 'speech sync' function (ST10).

When the speech sync function (schedule repeat play mode function) is activated by key operation or the like, the user operates the play key 130b to store the original sound data previously stored for his / her listening (foreign language information in an MP3 file). Select and play (ST12).

When the user first operates the recording key 130c while listening to the reproduced original sound data and feels the necessity of repeated listening and learning (ST14), the controller 110 controls the recording key 130c. The control unit receives the operation signal and stores the starting point of the original sound data being reproduced, and displays the starting point in the form of an icon on the display unit 120 so that the user can check it (ST16).

When the recording key 130c is operated for the second time in a desired part after listening to a predetermined section (ST18), the controller 110 stores the end point in the same way as the start point of the original sound data and displays the finished part. In step 120, an end icon is displayed (ST20).

Accordingly, a predetermined section is formed by the start point and the end point in the entire portion of the original sound data.

Meanwhile, the controller 110 generates a recording file so that the voice data can be recorded by the user through the microphone after the predetermined time period is formed by the controller 110, that is, the end point is set.

When the recording file is generated, the user starts recording by referring to the contents of the original sound data reproduced through the microphone (ST22).

If it is determined from the above step that the user has recorded the contents of the original sound data, the recording key 130c is operated for the third time to stop recording (ST24). Then, the controller 110 completes the generation of the recording file recording the sound source data which is the voice of the user input through the microphone (ST26).

Therefore, the controller 110 stores a predetermined section of the original sound data corresponding to the start point and the end point and the sound source data input from the user as one file.

In the data stored as one such file, the controller 110 sequentially reproduces the original sound data corresponding to the preset section and the sound source data of the user (ST28). This compares the data recorded by the user with the original sound data and provides an efficient learning method for pronunciation, intonation, and various expression methods.

At this time, when the user does not want to record or press the recording key (130c) when you want to record and listen to other parts again, the start point and end point specifying a certain section to the original sound data and the recorded user sound source data It is deleted. After the sound source data is deleted, the process returns to step 14 to allow the user to perform a series of processes for re-recording his / her voice (ST30 and ST34).

Then, as described above, the original sound data of the predetermined period and the sound source data recorded by the user are repeatedly played, and when the user wants to keep the recorded user voice file or listen to it again later, the playback is stopped by using the stop key 130d ( ST32).

On the other hand, since only the original sound data is stored in the memory unit 100, and only the voice data applied from the user is stored in the original sound data without any other data being duplicated or modified, the user can repeat the stored section of the original sound. You can learn by recording voice data and playing it sequentially.

For example, using the above process as a study sentence, data such as '~ during their mandatory military service, The twin had a chance to return after the war, but found it too expensive, but his son Jeffrey gave ~,' --- ① While playing, if the user wants to listen repeatedly to the section 'The twin had a chance to return after the war' --- ② as an example.

When the first word of ②, which is the portion that you want to play, is being played, when the recording key 130c is pressed, the controller 110 displays the portion of the original sound data as an icon. When the 'war' part is played, pressing the recording key 130c again displays the 'war' part as an icon, and memorizes the part ② corresponding to such a section.

Thereafter, the user inputs a sentence corresponding to the ② part through a microphone and then presses the recording key 130c again, thereby completing the recording file generation.

Accordingly, the current controller 110 recognizes the sound source data recorded by the user with reference to the section ② and the section ② among the original sound data, and repeats the playback sequentially.

The repeated playback process is stopped by the stop key 130d or by being deleted by the recording key 130c.

As described above, according to the language learning apparatus having a single memory and a method of controlling the same according to the present invention, the original sound data and the recorded sound source data are stored in each memory, compared to the original sound data and the original sound data. Since the sound source data can be recorded at the same time, not only the memory device can be saved, but only one memory is accessed, so that the electric circuit can be simplified and the competitiveness can be improved.                     

In addition, since the original sound data stored in the memory is not modified and stored repeatedly, only the user's voice is stored and reproduced, thereby eliminating anxiety caused by the deletion of the original sound data, thereby enabling efficient learning.

On the other hand, the present invention is described only for the learning portion limited to the language learning apparatus, but this is not limited to the specific preferred embodiment described above, and can be applied to repetitive reproduction of other information, the scope of the present invention Various modifications can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the gist of the invention as claimed.
