Description

The present invention relates to a Japanese input method of a personal computer.

The central task of the present invention is to establish a Japanese language input system of a personal computer which establishes the positive correspondence between the input system and the phonological structure of the Japanese language and the phonological system on the keyboard of 3 rows and 10 columns. It is in.

Generally speaking, as a personal computer input method that reflects the Japanese phonological structure or phonological system, the NEC Morita system that reflects the Japanese phonological system and the JIS hiragana system that reflects the Japanese phonological structure, There is a Fujitsu thumb shift method.

As is well known, currently the fastest Japanese language input method for personal computers is Fujitsu's thumb shift method.

However, as a result of designing this method based on old-fashioned ergonomics, its human interface is not good, and it is currently used only for business use.

The basic advantage of this method is that the first part, ie, the basic keyboard, where you enter a flat letter as it is with a single keystroke, and the first part of the fifty Japanese syllabary, that is, the part that did not enter the basic keyboard, is entered in cooperation with the thumb shift key. Three keyboards are used: a two-part keyboard, ie, a continuous keyboard, and a third part, ie, a continuous keyboard, in which the muddy sound and the half-tone sound are input in cooperation with another thumb shift key.

Such basic merits, however, are greatly impaired by the fact that both the categorization of characters on each keyboard and the arrangement within the keyboard completely ignore the Japanese syllabary structure that is the basis of the Japanese phonological structure. .

Japanese Patent Application No. 2016-118347, that is, Japanese Patent No. 6032583, has proposed an input method that completely copes with the Japanese syllabary structure, which is the basis of the Japanese phonological structure, by improving the disadvantages of the existing Fujitsu method.

The feature of the Japanese sentence input of this patent 6032583 is that, in the Japanese sentence, Jamo that belongs to five lines of the first half of the Japanese syllabary figure A row, row, row, row and row of relative appearance frequency appears relatively Noting that it is high, these five lines, five columns, and twenty-five letters are set as the first part, that is, the basic keyboard where the flat letter mother is directly input with one keystroke on a three-line, ten-column keyboard. In the row 5 column, do not set the letter of the line, from among the remaining letters of the appearance frequency is high, but, set the letter of the five letters of ,,, fifty The first part, that is, the part that did not enter the basic keyboard, is entered in cooperation with the thumb shift key as the second part, ie, the continuous keyboard, includes a line, a line, a line (including small size, 、 and 、), etc. Set the line character and each symbol, and further the muddy sound and the muddy sound by cooperation with another thumb shift key Set the third portion or continuously keyboard inputs Te lies in to enter all of the sums characters mother using three keys corresponding essentially to the both alphabetical view.

According to Japanese Patent No. 6032583, the number of letters that can be input with one keystroke is greatly increased while corresponding to the Japanese syllabary figure, and the human interface of the current Fujitsu system has been greatly improved.

However, there are still problems remaining with this method.

In the above invention, five punctuation characters are set in the basic keyboard in which input is performed by one keystroke.

Of these five letters, three letters of N, N, A, and B are set only in this part of the entire keyboard, but a two-letter mother cooperates with the thumb shift key. The input is also set to the keyboard that is recalled by two keystrokes.

In this case, if the input person is placed on the basic keyboard where input is performed with one keystroke, but if the input is performed by the character of, the keyboard for which input is performed with the other two keystrokes, Only the four-character mother of hi, fu, he, ho, and the four-character mother of gu, gu, g, and go are input targets, and friction occurs with the standard of one-line five-character mother in the input person's consciousness The positions of the letters in these lines are null and the efficiency of the keyboard configuration is reduced.

On the other hand, if these letters are input by the key "ha" and the letter "ga" set on the keyboard which is not the basic keyboard, then the letter "ha" placed on the basic keyboard and the letter " The key responsible for the input of "G" is meaningless.

Japanese Patent Application No. 53-36455 Japanese Patent Application No. 58-72492 Japanese Patent Application No. 72493 Japanese Patent Application No. 61-235886 Japanese Patent Application No. 62-182296 Japanese Patent Application No. 2-51565 Japanese Patent Application No. 4-17590 Japanese Patent Application No. 4-130046 Japanese Patent Application No. 4-252733 Japanese Patent Application No. 2016-118347

The object of the present invention is to solve the problem of the Japanese Patent Application No. 2016-118347, that is, Japanese Patent No. 6032583, as the Fujitsu's thumb shift method and its evolved type, which is judged to be the best as the Japanese input method with plain characters. Based on the merits, the point is to make further improvements.

Therefore, a special frame of one line is made on the basic keyboard, which is an advantage of Japanese Patent No. 6032583, and there is no line belonging to the five lines of a, 、, 、, 、, and the appearance rate in Japanese We will use the feature of setting the input of high J, and search for the way to be developed further.

Means to solve the problem

Therefore, considering the character of the letter belonging to one line set to this basic keyboard in Japanese Patent 6032583, the letter "N" and the letter "" are 50 terms in the narrow sense consisting of five lines and ten lines. The word "wo", which does not show any figure in the phonetic chart, is generally a "wa" among the various alphabets of the Japanese syllabary figure consisting of one line and five columns, or one line and five steps in grammatical terms. I realize that it is a unique existence that consists only of two letters mother and "wo".

Therefore, even if one of the two character mothers of "wa" and "wa" is moved to another place, the influence on the 1-line 5-step phoneme configuration is not large.

In other words, putting a three-letter mother of "N", "T" and "W" in this one line does not disturb the order of respect for the one-line, five-step letter matrix arrangement which is the basic principle of the whole keyboard configuration.

Therefore, in the remaining two frames of this line, it is necessary to place the basic composition and distant letter mother of the Japanese syllabary character with similar character to "N", "T" and "O". Although we reach the conclusion that it is desirable, in practice, there is no Japanese character that can respond to such a request.

However, when copying Japanese sentences, punctuation marks are required in addition to Jomo.

Since punctuation marks exist outside the Japanese syllabary figure, if the punctuation mark entry rate in Japanese sentences is high, if the punctuation mark input is set to one line of the problem, further development is achieved by taking advantage of Japanese Patent No. 6032583. It can be done.

The above-mentioned patent 6032583 is a sample of the Asahi Shimbun from April 21 to 30, 2016, and the editorial book from April 21 to 23, as a sample for estimating the appearance rate of each character in Japanese. And from the 25th of April of the same year to the 1st of the evening, the article of the dolphin singer's visit in the evening, using a total of 21698 characters in total.

Now, looking at this data, in a total of 216,9898 characters, the character "ha" has appeared 539 times, the character "ga" has appeared 529 times, and 1068 times in total.

On the other hand, if the same material is used to search for the number of occurrences of the phrase point "." And the reading point "," the former has appeared 566 times, the latter 468 times, a total of 1034 times, and the letter "wa" There is no big difference with the appearance rate of the Japanese character "ga".

Therefore, in the present invention, the letter "wa" and the letter "ga" set on the basic keyboard of the above-mentioned patent 6032583 are canceled, and instead, the punctuation mark "." And the reading mark "," are set.

With this setting, the punctuation mark input on the continuous keyboard can be omitted in the above-mentioned patent 6032583, so that two blanks can be made again, but in the present invention, the question mark "?" The exclamation mark "!" Is to be set.

The above-mentioned patent 6032583 has another problem.

In the patent 6032583, all letters are basically arranged from left to right according to the arrangement of the Japanese syllabary chart.

In this method, a novice's approach to the keyboard is facilitated, but certain problems remain from the viewpoint of the order of input.

That is, in this method, for example, in the row on the left side of the row, the little finger is input on the row, the ring finger is on the row, the middle finger is on the row, and the fore finger is on the row and row. In the row of the right hand, in the row of the right hand, the input of the step is the index finger, the input of the step is the middle finger, the input of the step is the ring finger, and the input of the step is the little finger It becomes to be in charge, assignment of the function of the finger of the right hand and the left hand does not correspond to the Japanese syllabary figure.

Furthermore, in this method, using the above data, a total of 118021 letters are assigned to the left-hand part of the left side of the keyboard, and a total of 9877 letters are assigned to the right-hand part of the right side of the keyboard. There are more letters on the left hand than letters on the right hand.

Therefore, in the present invention, in the right half of the basic keyboard called by one keystroke, each key of the a row, the row, and the row is from left to right, the row, the row, the row, and the row. Arrange the keys in the left half of the basic keyboard, from the right to the left, in the left half of the basic keyboard, in the order from the right, left, right, left, right, left, right, left. Arrange and arrange two letters of each character of “N” “っ” “を”, a reading point “,” and a phrase point “.” In order from left to right in one remaining line.

Similarly, on the continuous keyboard, the keys in the right half, the row and the row are arranged from left to right in the following order: step, step, step, step, step, From left to right, on each left line, each letter and question mark of Y, Y, Y, W? Place the keys on the left half of the continuous keyboard, and place the letters, long notes and black symbols in order from right to left, and each key on the second line. , Respectively arranged from right to left, in the order of steps, steps, steps, steps, steps, and on line 3, "", "", ")", "(), exclamation Each sign of the sign “!” Is arranged from right to left in order.

Finally, in the right half of the keyboard, on the right half of the keyboard, the row, row, and row keys are left to right, respectively, from the left to the right, 段, 段, 段, 段, 濁Arrange in the order of the stages, and in the left half of the keyboard, the right, left and right keys, respectively, from the right to the left, in the order of steps, steps, steps, steps, steps Deploy.

Effect of the invention

As described above, on the keyboard of 3 rows and 10 columns, the symbols such as flat letters and punctuation marks are arranged in a form corresponding to the Japanese syllabary figure, and this arrangement is further applied to the situation of symmetrical human fingers. By arranging them in a corresponding manner, the human interface of the keyboard configuration of the personal computer is greatly improved.

These are intended to indicate the letter arrangement of the keyboard of the present invention. Is an indication intention showing the letter arrangement of the keyboard of Japanese Patent 6032583.

Personal computer.

The present invention further streamlines the method of inputting Japanese alphabets and symbols according to Japanese syllabary figure system in Japanese language input of personal computer, and greatly improves the human interface as Japanese language input system of mobile phone and It has the potential to win the same exclusive position.
