As the learning of Chinese characters has emerged as an important issue, there are various ways to make learning Chinese characters interesting and not boring. One of the most commonly used methods of learning Chinese characters, especially children and elementary school students, is the use of game cards. Game cards are usually made in the form of a Chinese character displayed on the front and his or her hun and notes on the back. At this time, the game card is produced in such a way that a picture corresponding to the Chinese character (for example, a dragon figure with a dragon letter) is displayed on the front of the game card. Make sure

On the other hand, it has been proposed to be able to learn Chinese characters in game form on the Internet. Such a game is operated in such a way that the balloon bursts when the Chinese character written on the balloon is input while the balloon is written on the screen.

According to still another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of providing an online kanji learning game program having the above configuration such that a predetermined server can provide a user terminal connected online. And executing the online game through an interface with the user terminal by driving the game program as the user terminal accesses the server. The method for providing an online Chinese character learning game program is provided.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described in detail a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

The game according to the present invention is produced as a game that can be provided online, and is provided to the user terminal from the server. In the method provided from the server to the user terminal, the game program itself can be downloaded to the user terminal so that the game program can be executed independently from the user terminal after the download, or is executed online while the user terminal is connected to the server online. The game may be provided in the form of a game so that a user may execute the game through an interface with a server. In this case, a plurality of users may access the server at the same time and may be provided in such a manner that several people may play the game together and win or lose the game. Here, the terminal may be a mobile terminal such as a mobile phone or a PDA as well as a general desktop computer. In the case of a mobile terminal, online would be the wireless Internet. Furthermore, the game program of the present invention may be distributed in a state of being stored in a recording medium such as a CD and installed in the user's terminal.

Among various game program providing methods, FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a screen frame in a state in which an online kanji learning game of the present invention is downloaded through a wireless internet and provided on a mobile terminal.

In the screen of the game program, a character for learning Chinese characters is included. In this embodiment, a fireball-shaped character is shown to display a fire and a tree-shaped character is shown to display a wooden character. In this game, these characters are called Cheonjamon (Cheonja (千字) + Monster).

The character of Tianzamon is depicted in the shape of fire (wood) on the front and the Chinese characters (fire and wood) on the back. As the cheonjamon rotates and descends from the top to the bottom of the screen, the character and kanji of the cheonjamon are displayed alternately on the screen. The user plays a game that matches Chinese characters while the cheonjamon is displayed on the screen.

When the user operates the keypad on the terminal and inputs the sound (or 훈) of each character in Korean, the result is scored and displayed on the score sign. At this time, the growth type puncture monster on the screen is configured as a growth type character that grows in the Tamagotchi method according to the increase of the score, causing the interest according to the increase in the score. At this time, the score can be calculated by the number of strokes of the matched Chinese characters. For example, wooden characters are four Chinese characters, so if they match, four points are added, and if they are wrong, two points, half of them, are deducted. (In case of odd strokes, the half round value is set as the deduction point.)

Cheonzamon can be leveled in stages. For example, in step 1, simple, basic Chinese characters such as day, month, fire, wood, etc. are composed. In step 2, difficulty level, such as love, river, etc. It may consist of Chinese characters higher than step 1. In addition, the step of presenting the idiom may be set separately so that the Chinese characters constituting the idiom are presented sequentially.

Such a game scenario may be variously configured within the scope of the game configured to include the cheonjamon character according to the present invention.

FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating examples of Chinese character learning characters provided in the game program of FIG. 1.

Chinese character learning character (cheonjamon) according to the present invention is manufactured to have the appearance of a predetermined character as a whole, characterized in that a predetermined Chinese character is engraved on one portion thereof. The appearance character and kanji of the cheonjamon are configured to correspond to each other, that is, as the character of the image that can be associated with the engraved kanji.

More specifically, two cheonjamon is illustrated in Figure 2, the first cheonjamon is manufactured so that the overall appearance has a heart (heart) shape. At this time, in order to give the feeling of 'love' more clearly, the character is taking a gentle smile on the front face (10a) of the heart-shaped character. Kanji love lover is engraved on the heart-shaped back 10b. The second Cheonzamon is made as a character whose overall appearance is a cloud. Similarly, a cloud-shaped front surface 20a is engraved with a figure that forms a character, and a cloud cloud is engraved on the rear surface 20b.

During the game, the child sees the character of the character and the kanji inscribed on the character and thinks about what the kanji is. If a child has seen the kanji in the past, the kanji's sound and rhythm can be memorized. Then, the Chinese characters and / or hun are entered through the keypad and the results are displayed and scored. If the kanji of cheonjamon is the first kanji that the child sees, the kanjamon will be able to see the character of cheonjamon and reminiscent of his notes and rhymes.

This has the advantage that the effect of association is very large because the overall appearance itself is manufactured in the shape of a character, compared to simply recording a picture of a dragon and a letter of a dragon on a game card.

Meanwhile, in the above-described embodiment of FIG. 2, one character corresponds to each character, but in the case of Chinese characters that are difficult to form clearly, one representative shape is formed for a group of Chinese characters having a plurality of correlated huns or sounds. It is desirable to set the representative character to have. For example, Chinese characters that represent numbers vary from one to ten, and hundreds, hundreds, thousand, and tens, and these numbers correspond by inserting the corresponding Arabic numerals into the characters. It is also possible to shape the character, but by setting a representative character (for example, abacus, calculator, etc.) representing the number can give an associative action that the Chinese character is related to the number.

In addition, the river, river and river characters have different meanings, but have similar meanings such as rivers or rivers. It can be selected as a representative character and used as a common character for the three characters. Representative characters may be assigned to groups by grouping several Chinese characters based on the same similar instruction, or may be assigned to groups by grouping several Chinese characters on the same similar note.

In this case, it is possible to shape the character for Chinese characters that are difficult to form as characters, and from the standpoint of children learning Chinese characters, various Chinese characters can be grouped for each related character image and imprinted as a similar feeling. It can give a more effective direction.
