[embodiment]
Hereinafter the debater of institute is the disclosed preferred embodiment of the present invention.Though this instructions is illustrating with the following example based on spirit of the present invention, is not in order to limit the invention to described embodiment.The present invention for embodiment only with thinking the use that illustrates of this instructions, be not in order to limit viewpoint of the present invention.
Fig. 1 is a button synoptic diagram on the keyboard.Be that button with a kind of QWERTY keyboard is the example explanation in Fig. 1, QWERTY keyboard may be for external physical keyboard or in the Simutation keyboard as shown on screen of handheld electronic device, but is not in order to limit the invention to this.In Fig. 1, when button 11 is pressed, can produce the one scan sign indicating number, and this scan code correspondence can produce symbol " F " when English input method, can produce symbol " ㄑ " during corresponding Chinese phonetic input method, can produce symbol " fire " during corresponding Chinese Cangjie's input method.Though the symbol that button 11 is produced can correspond to English input method, Chinese phonetic input method and Chinese Cangjie's input method, the input method that the prior art person in this field can set up other on their own corresponds to button 11.
Fig. 2 is the process flow diagram according to an embodiment of multilingual input method of the present invention.In step S21, the signal of detecting user input just removes to receive the pairing sign indicating number that scans of button that the user presses earlier.Then, in step S22, the scan code that can earlier the user be imported is converted to English alphabet, and is presented at an input field, and judges whether user's input has the English-word that corresponds in the dictionary.For instance, the user imports " b " " o " " o " " k " in regular turn, because book is significant individual character in english dictionary, therefore can show book in input field, but the book of this moment is not peremptory input individual character, though can be presented at input field, be still in a kind of quick condition, needs just can formally be imported in input field after waiting the user to confirm again.The described quick condition of preface is meant that the book that shows this moment really is not presented at this field, but see through the field that interface control produces, need the user to reaffirm, as press the enter key, just can be input to input field, otherwise the user will disappear after pressing the Esc key.
In step S22, show the English-word of user's input or show the alphabetical immediate individual character that this moment, the user imported.For instance, if user this moment in the input field input be " stuf ", and this moment, immediate English-word be " stuff ", therefore can show input field that " stuff " imports in the user above or below.In addition if the part of user input this moment has been an individual character,, but still have this moment approaching individual character " storey ", input method also can show that " storey " is above or below the input field of user's input as " store ".
Then in step S24, can judge whether corresponding Chinese words with a Chinese character coding input method according to user's input.The input signal of importing at this moment as the user is " ㄍ ㄜ+space " (space refers to the space bar of keyboard) to shining phonetic input method, the multilingual input method of present embodiment judges this moment be that corresponding Chinese words is arranged, will produce a field and demonstrate possible Chinese words, as " brother " (step S25).Because user's input is on keyboard at this moment, the English words that the key combination that " ㄍ ㄜ+space " is identical also can correspond to is " ek+space ", but in English input, there is no the English-word of " ek ", only can show that therefore immediate English-word " eke " is above or below the input field of user's input.
In step S26, the user can select an output according to the result of step S22 and step S24 at last.Be noted that step S26 and not exclusive choice mechanism.The input method of present embodiment can have the mechanism of direct judgement, exports correct Chinese and English.For example, Chinese phonetic input method have, two, three, the four tones of standard Chinese pronunciation and softly.Therefore if input method receives in the signal of user's input this moment, be pressed if detect corresponding key, what just can know user's input at present is Chinese, therefore will directly export the possible outcome of Chinese, allows the user select required word again.But consider the input of English phrase, therefore input method can detect after space bar (space) is depressed, whether the previous input of inquiry user is correct English-word, if not, then as can be known the user to import at present be Chinese, therefore can show with the output result of Chinese, select required Chinese words for the user.
Fig. 3 uses an embodiment of multilingual input method of the present invention in the synoptic diagram of handheld electronic device.In Fig. 3, be the example explanation only with the picture of portable electric device, its in the functional module of portable electric device for this reason in the technical field prior art person can learn easily, do not give unnecessary details at this.The multilingual input method of present embodiment is performed for a processor that sees through in the portable electric device.In Fig. 3, keyboard 34 is the dummy keyboard of portable electric device emulation in display screen, but keyboard 34 can also be the physical keyboard that portable electric device has.The keyboard 34 of present embodiment is to be the example explanation with a QWERTY keyboard, but also can switch to a Chinese phonetic notation input keyboard, or, can show the symbol of the input method that representative is different at one key, shown in the button of Fig. 1 as the QWERTY keyboard that computed table uses.
In Fig. 3, the button that the user imports at this moment is corresponding by analysis scans behind the sign indicating number is respectively to correspond to English " rup+space ", and " the ㄐ ㄧ ㄣ " of phonetic symbol.The English words " rup " that therefore can show input earlier in input field 31, and input method of the present invention can produce a message box 32 below input field 31, in order to show immediate English-word " rupee ".Because at Chinese phonetic input method is that corresponding word is arranged, so the input method of present embodiment can be presented at field 33 to possible Chinese words " it is self-important that modern gold is prohibited Tianjin jin towel muscle flap ".As shown in Figure 3, the different language result who imports content corresponding to the user will be shown on the display screen simultaneously, for example shows the field 33 of the message box 32 and the Chinese display word of English-word.Then the user selects in English words " rupee " or the Chinese words " modern gold taboo Tianjin jin towel muscle flap is self-important " one according to own needs again, and the word of selection will be presented in the input field 31.In another embodiment, after the user pressed space bar, input method can judge whether the English alphabet before the space bar meets an English-word in the dictionary, if do not have, and the direct possible outcome of Chinese display word then.If the input method of this moment Chinese is to belong to no dried shrimp input method or Cangjie's input method, then may have only a Chinese words to meet user's input, so input method of the present invention just can directly be exported the Chinese words that meets in input field 31.Must be noted that the button imported as the user when not having also that specific words is chosen to export input field 31 to, pairing phonetic symbol or English alphabet can be displayed on the field below simultaneously.In addition, present embodiment is to show that simultaneously corresponding English-word and Chinese words are example, yet in other embodiments, also can be and show specific language simultaneously according to user's setting, Spanish for example, French, Tai Wen or Japanese etc., which input method language the user can determine to be shown on the display screen simultaneously according to the demand of input.
Fig. 4 uses another embodiment of multilingual input method of the present invention in the synoptic diagram of handheld electronic device.In Fig. 4, be the example explanation only with the picture of portable electric device, its in the functional module of portable electric device for this reason in the technical field prior art person can learn easily, do not give unnecessary details at this.The multilingual input method of present embodiment is performed for a processor that sees through in the portable electric device.In Fig. 4, keyboard 44 is the dummy keyboard of portable electric device emulation in display screen, but keyboard 44 can also be the physical keyboard that portable electric device has.The keyboard 44 of present embodiment is to be the example explanation with a QWERTY keyboard, but also can switch to a Chinese phonetic notation input keyboard, or, can show the symbol of the input method that representative is different at one key, shown in the button of Fig. 1 as the QWERTY keyboard that computed table uses.
In Fig. 4, the button that the user imports at this moment is corresponding by analysis after scanning is respectively to correspond to English " meeti ", and " the ㄩ ㄍ ㄍ ㄔ ㄛ " of phonetic symbol, but only can demonstrate " ㄔ ㄩ ㄛ " according to the rule of phonetic notation.The English words " meeti " that therefore can show input earlier in input field 41, and input method of the present invention can produce a message box 42 below input field 41, in order to show immediate English-word " meeting ".Because at Chinese phonetic input method is not have corresponding word, so the input method of present embodiment only can show " ㄔ ㄩ ㄛ " in field 43.Then the user just can select English words " meeting " fast and be presented in the input field 31.
