Abstract

A Chinese character input method and its software for computer make the initial consonant and simple vowel of Chinese phonetic alphabet be a two-dimensional coordinates, and design a corresponding Chinese character word keyboard. The words on the keyboard are those often used words by the readers, and the phonetic letters are combined organically with the word keyboard to let the mouse directly pick up the word or phrase. All the same sound words are taken when one word is touch-hit by the mouse with in this two-dimensional word panel to finished input. To carry out coding for Chinese characters, initial consonaunts and simple vowels on the above-mentioned word panel with the keycode of digital panel in keyboard, three kinds of locational coding can be obtained to realize the single-hand input for Chinese characters with only right hand hitting on the digital panel area.

Description

Three-dimensional group spelling input method

The present invention relates to a kind of Chinese character computerized inputting method, and with the made software of this method, particularly: can directly just can import required Chinese character clicking on letter disk provided by the present invention on the screen with mouse, if import with keyboard, except that general keyboard and input method, can be only with the dial on the right, letter disk coding according to the present invention is imported Chinese character, the people who is suitable for being unfamiliar with the Chinese phonetic alphabet and likes only typewriting with the right hand.

Existing Chinese character input, many input methods that is based on phonetic, as input methods such as spelling, Two bors d's oeuveres, Intelligent ABC, and based on digitally coded zone-bit input method etc., need use a key position, A～Z, 0～9 three ten six based on the method for phonetic input, the more and strong position dispersion of touch potential when input, if there is higher input speed to need the both hands typewriting, and needing phonetic alphabet on top of, memory capacitance is big, and can not visual input Chinese character.For example will import " in ", need in brain, to form five letters of phonetic " zhong ", (promptly can not provide all phonetics of Chinese character and pronunciation Chinese character comes selective to press corresponding letter key more successively, just as providing the space of filling a vacancy, examination do not give optional answer, not providing optional answer does the same easily), though zone-bit input method can must be found corresponding four codings earlier only with the numerical key typewriting, the Chinese character input that incompatibility is general is difficult to promote.

Task of the present invention provides a kind of visual Chinese character input method.Chinese-character pronunciation is pressed initial consonant to this method and simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable is distinguished, and with some pronunciation simplification combination, with two dimension in length and breadth the form fold arrangement of coordinate come out, form a phonetic letter disk (we are referred to as the mark with phonetic symbols word) that comprises all pronunciation Chinese characters, utilize mouse directly to get word, get speech, click certain Chinese character, can give all phonetically similar words, if the Chinese character of the vertical intersection of consonant, vowel is on two-dimensional coordinate, then its all phonetically similar words are third dimensions, very directly perceived, imagery.

The present invention finishes in Windows operating system in such a way, during the input Chinese character, rolling mouse is to the Chinese character of the need input phase unisonance in letter disk district, this word is exaggerated and outstanding showing automatically, and its color also changes thereupon, and corresponding phonetic rhythm female elephant ruler equally moves on to its top, the phonetic alphabet of indication Chinese character also show, clicking this word of (pressing) mouse has recessed effect, and the effect of projection is arranged when lifting mouse (unclamping), very vivid.

The phonetically similar word of selected word all shows, and mouse is automatically moved to numeral and punctuation mark district, selects required input Chinese character and related Chinese characters in common use (as " ") or punctuation mark again.If Chinese character on the letter disk (mark with phonetic symbols word) is needed just, directly click right gets final product.If the present invention is provided in notebook computer or the palm PC, directly click with point-touch pen, convenient especially.

Utilize the letter disk input, can give full play to the advantage of our Chinese character.

On the basis of above-mentioned letter disk, with on the keyboard the right digital panel the numeral and several symbols consonant, vowel are numbered, just formed the basis of so-called super region-position code, with this coding method when using Chinese characters for keyboard inputting, can be only with the dial on the right on the keyboard, letter disk coding according to screen only impacts the input that can finish Chinese character with the right hand.

The invention will be further described below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.

Click the software icon of the present invention on the taskbar, (can move) the colored clock that has calendar that demonstrates and have " super three-dimensional input method " roll titles on the screen left side arbitrarily, see shown in Figure 1.It both can write down the typewriting time, can make the usefulness of general clock again, and it is covered with main body Chinese Character card of the present invention when not importing Chinese character, made the usefulness of colored clock, beautified outward appearance.

One, invention is introduced

Fig. 2 is a major part of the present invention---the Chinese selecting of band phonetic.

Below in conjunction with Fig. 2 substantial portion of the present invention is described in detail.

The upper left corner of this letter disk is as the origin coordinates of initial consonant and simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable, and the leftmost first stringer initial consonant [3] is the initial consonant tag slot of the Chinese phonetic alphabet, and wherein not have the pronunciation word of initial consonant capable in the behavior at AEO place, and initial consonant ch, sh, zh are integrated into c, s, the z initial consonant is capable.

The top is the capable 1[1 of simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable laterally] and the capable 2[2 of horizontal simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable bottom] be the simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable sign row of the Chinese phonetic alphabet.

If stringer initial consonant [3] is regarded as the Y-axis coordinate of planimetric coordinates, then simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable capable [1] and simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable capable [2] are exactly the X-axis coordinate that has folded simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable, processing can make the width in simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable district (X-direction) reduce by half (initial consonant also can be done same processing) like this, arranges more compact and reasonable.

Center section is main body character of the present invention panel [4], and all Chinese-character pronunciations represented in these Chinese characters (about 360), and be the highest Chinese characters in common use of usage frequency.They are by (Y-axis) the vertical Chinese character risked of initial consonant [3] and (X-axis) horizontal simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable [1] or simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable [2] merge point place.The space that the main body character panel does not have Chinese character to fill is that the combination pronunciation of initial consonant and simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable does not exist, Chinese character promptly should not pronounce, in the blue look frame in the upper right corner, letter disk district " and " (phonetic is er) be special pronunciation word, the phonetic correspondence in its discord consonant, vowel phonetic district.

The punctuation mark district [5] on the right, middle part, main body character panel [4] is provided with the mouse inputting punctuation mark for convenience, identifies into Lan Sequ, and this zone does not have the Chinese-character pronunciation of the female combination of sound.

The Chinese-character pronunciation and the top capable 1[1 of simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable of light green color row in the main body character panel [4]] the simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable pronunciation of (same color) is corresponding, the Chinese character of Lan Sehang and the capable 2[2 of simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable] corresponding.

For example the L of initial consonant [3] capable in, top " drawing " word and the capable 1[1 of simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable] a simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable correspondence, following " six " word and the capable 2[2 of simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable] iu simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable correspondence, i.e. La (drawing), Liu (six).

The stringer on the right, main body character panel [4] is numerical function key [6], be Super Back Space topmost, by the phonetic rather than the single letter that once can move back a Chinese character, ←, →, ↑, ↓ represent PageUp, PageDown, home, End key respectively, the page turning key that is used for the unisonance Chinese character, numeral 0～9 is a word selection key, " Chinese " key is the Chinese character or the switch key of its phonetic for output, " " " key is the opening of notebook, off switch key, quit is the program ESC Escape, and file is Menu key such as the opening of file, storage, font selection, help.

Except that above-mentioned Chinese-character phonetic letter letter disk, the present invention also provides three kinds of numeric coding schemes.They are all encoded to it with the numeral and the symbol in digital panel, the right on the keyboard, and pressing tab key can switch between Pinyin coding and three kinds of region codes successively.Form so-called super region code.Their common ground is that main body character panel [4] is just the same.

Fig. 3 is first kind of region code letter disk of the present invention.

Fig. 4 is keyboard coding figure.

The characteristics of this coding are by district, the capable 1[1 of simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable with initial consonant capable [3]], 2[2] step-by-step encodes, use respectively digital panel 0～9, totally ten one key codings and+(plus sige) together totally ten two keys finish the input of Chinese character, used key position is minimum.

According to Fig. 3 the keyboard coding of Fig. 4 is done an explanation below.

For example in Fig. 3, " " word code is the combination of capable coding of initial consonant [33] and simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable capable encode [31], promptly 4 and 3, its phonetic is de.Equally " name " be encoded to 011, its phonetic is ming.

In Fig. 4, boldface type on certain key position above the key name partly is the coding of initial consonant, corpus hemorrhagicum character segment below the key name is the coding of simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable, key name the right 0, be respectively when importing consonant, vowel in order with 0 or add that this key just obtains on it or following consonant, vowel.For example the key position 4, when the input initial consonant, directly make a call to 4, obtain d (getting), if make a call to 0 earlier, make a call to 4 again, then obtain q (taking advantage of) initial consonant, in like manner when the input simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable, directly make a call to 4 and obtain simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable ai, make a call to 4 again if beat earlier, then obtain simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable ua.Therefore, de is encoded to 43, and the coding of ming should make a call to 011.

Fig. 5 is second kind of region code chart of the present invention.

Fig. 6 is keyboard coding figure.

This coding is divided into two intervals with initial consonant, plus sige before the consonant coding in second interval, initial consonant sh, ch, zh respectively with/, * ,-number the coding, the initial consonant pronunciation ch that removes for ch[/ remove (chu) number], the initial consonant sh that sh[* takes advantage of (sheng) number to take advantage of], zh (No. one and preceding two keys with row), memory easily.

Simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable is also very regular following on coding, several basic vowels: a, e, o, i, u, v use respectively symbol, *, 0 ,/,-,--(beating the secondary negative sign) encodes, a, e, o add when doing no initial consonant phonetic transcriptions of Chinese characters output+number ,+number as little enter key usefulness.

Several basic simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable unit is arranged:

Simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable: ai ao an ang ei en eng ou ong

Coding: 123456789

Other simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable combines by above-mentioned six vowels and basic simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable.But ing adds i.e./7 codings of eng with i, and in adds i.e./6 codings of en with i.

The characteristics of this region code are clear, find out easy memory by Fig. 6 code pattern.

The third region code of the present invention is from a left side and right with the Chinese character in major word panel, press the natural number sequential encoding from top to bottom, but in keyboard operation, take a kind of measure of page turning very easily, promptly with * ,/represent page turning key before and after the initial consonant, and, 0 represent the simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable of letter disk (press in proper order) page turning key.

Some auxiliary functions to software of the present invention make a presentation below.

With in the numerical function key among click Fig. 2 [6] " key (or pressing the ctrl+O key), open the notebook literal input field [72] that the present invention carries, see shown in Figure 7, press once again " key (notebook is opened the back " number change direction, expression is a close key at this moment), notebook is amounted to, restore to the original state, when mouse when mobile, tail sign point symbol hurdle [71] can occur under the open mode shown in Figure 7 on 0～9, and move and move with mouse, the digital top alignment at the top on tail sign point symbol hurdle [71] and mouse place, when mouse leave numerical function key [6] 0～9 the time, tail sign point symbol hurdle [71] disappears, its usage is seen below.

Mouse is got the state indication of word, keyboard typing:

In Fig. 4 and Fig. 6, " code " that marks on the key position of not using reaches " initial consonant ", " simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable " is respectively the key assignments of input and the phonetic that decoding produces.Simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable sign bar [8] (see figure 8) when the input Chinese character on letter disk district [4] (see figure 2) can move on to corresponding position along with the input consonant, vowel, and similar sign bar [9] is also arranged when getting word, speech with mouse, sees shown in Figure 9.

For making things convenient for the study of the Chinese phonetic alphabet, the present invention has released the study version again, sees shown in Figure 10.It is basic identical with above-mentioned professional version, but on Chinese character major word panel [4], under reach the right side and added simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable pronunciation character mark capable [11] and [12] and initial consonant pronunciation character mark capable [13] respectively, when Chinese character that mouse is chosen on letter disk, the phonetic of indication Chinese character shows at once, just promptly refer to promptly piece together function, when having clicked the pronunciation button (or on keyboard, pressing ctrl+s), the four tones of standard Chinese pronunciation of its phonetically similar word can be read in the indication Chinese character, for example: in (zhong high and level tone, rising tone, last sound, falling tone), when with the keyboard practice spelling input method, deixis followed the tracks of in same sound simple or compound vowel of a Chinese syllable, and selected Chinese character changes color and highlights, and has made things convenient for study.

Two, input method

(1) variation of operation interface of the present invention:

Click (in windows operating system) icon of the present invention on the taskbar, the calendar clock that occurs Fig. 1 at screen, when mouse moves on on the clock panel, clock disappears, Fig. 2 appears, the click function key ", promptly opened notebook literal input field [72], can be when not opening board directly to system's input Chinese character.

Mouse is got the input rule of word, speech:

In Fig. 2, all spaces and punctuation mark district [5] in the major word panel [4], click with the mouse left-right key and what all can be order what goes out, the space is got word for mouse convenience is provided, high frequency Chinese character for major word panel [4], directly import during click right, when clicking left button, the word selection plate that its all phonetically similar words then in notebook literal input field [72], occur, select one of them again, but the capable c of initial consonant, s, z exception, the pronunciation Chinese character of the left button of clicking the mouse output initial consonant c, s, z, click right is then exported the Chinese character that initial consonant is ch, sh, zh pronunciation.If will export card high frequency degree word then double-clicks left button and gets final product.

(2) first kinds of mouses are got word, word input method

In the major word panel [4] of Fig. 2, click a word, at this moment mouse move on to automatically digital function keypad [6] 1 on, meanwhile tail sign point symbol hurdle [71] occur automatically.In digital function keypad [6], choose again.Or directly click right is directly chosen the card word in letter disk.If input have during Chinese character the everyday character of following (as " ... ... " in " " word) or punctuation mark, then on the tail sign point symbol hurdle [71] of Fig. 7, choose in the lump and get final product.

Now " I have really tired out, and am sought after having a rest with the input Chinese character." for example explanation input process, referring to Fig. 9.

The Chinese character operation

I: mouse moves on on capable " I " word of initial consonant W, because of being the card word, clicks

Right button.

Why really: mouse moves on on the capable " " word of initial consonant Z because before the tongue behind the tongue sound be not easily distinguishable sometimes clear,

The point left button does not find earlier, direct switching point right click, and first is " very " in unisonance

Word, but the next word of this word after having imported is " ", therefore directly mouse is shifted to the right to tail again

Sign point symbol plate [7] " " on the word directly click can import " really " two words.Tired: mouse moves on on " class " word and puts left button, and its cursor moves on to numerical function key [6] (see figure 2) automatically

On 1, because of " tiring out " word on the 2nd position of phonetically similar word, mouse is clicked and to be got final product to moving down into 2.: have on the Chinese character card frequency word " ", click right gets final product.: and punctuation mark district [5] (Fig. 2) or tail sign point symbol hurdle [71] (Fig. 7) go up to click and to get final product.Very: with " " input method similar.Need: the left button of on letter disk " is permitted ", clicking the mouse, the ejection phonetically similar word, because of " need " word the 3rd position,

Click 3, because of system provides associative phrase again: 1, demand 2, demand 3, needs, put 3 again and get final product.Have a rest.: " repairing " left button of clicking the mouse on the word on the letter disk, " stopping " word that system provides is at three-dimensional unisonance letter stencil

The 4th position, put 4 again, associative phrase " rest " moves to 5 the 5th position with mouse, again to

Be shifted to the right to "." on number, can import and " have a rest.”。Last fullstop is also related finishes input.

(3) second kinds of methods that mouse is got word, speech

This method is with a certain initial consonant immigration major word panel [4] of mouse from the initial consonant [3] on Fig. 2 left side, the initial consonant that mouse touched is promptly as the initial consonant of first Chinese character of two-character word, this initial consonant changes color, and then clicks the phonetically similar word of second word in the letter disk district, can select this two-character word.

For example will import " computer " two words, mouse is slipped into major word panel [4] from initial consonant D, go up in " making a noise " (phonetically similar word of brain) and click, mouse moves on on 1 automatically, occurs simultaneously: 1, computer 2, brain, select 1 to get final product.

If typewriting process intermediate demand is had a rest, mouse can be shifted out letter disk district (or pressing ctrl+O), at this moment card covers with clock, if board is then closing automatically of opening, returns to Fig. 1 of the present invention, when mouse moves into the letter disk district once more, recovers original state.

(4) the digital panel Chinese character input method of usefulness keyboard

Because the present invention encodes to the digital panel of keyboard, make and except that the input Chinese character of encoding routinely, can only just can finish the Chinese character input with right hand keypad area (digital panel) on the right.

For example to import following Chinese character (seeing Table)

Chinese character	First kind of coding input	Second kind of coding input	Page turning	Word selection	Page turning	Select speech
							Life	????·601	???? *7		????4	??→	????4
Super	????·36	????/2		????3	??→	????2
							Computing machine	?????803	????7/	???→	????2	??→	????6

Can only see Fig. 4 when importing with first and second kind compiling method, the keyboard coding figure of Fig. 6, the third then must according to Chinese character main body character panel [4] input coding (having only 360) and+number import Chinese character together, but can understand phonetic transcriptions of Chinese characters.
