Can be significantly reduced (see, for example, Patent Document 1). In addition, during kana-kanji conversion, in conjunction with the search for conversion candidates for kanji, related kanji characters are also searched from all conversion candidate kanji and readings and displayed together with kanji (for example, (See Patent Document 2). Furthermore, when a keyword corresponding to a pictogram is input, a pictogram associated with the keyword is also displayed (see, for example, Patent Document 3).

  However, when inserting the same phrase or pictograph over the previous phrase, it is necessary to repeatedly input the same character string by key operation, which is very troublesome. In order to solve this troublesomeness, a re-inputable character input device (see, for example, Patent Document 4) has been proposed. The character input device described in Patent Literature 4 specifies a character pattern following an input character that has been input with reference to a correspondence relationship, and adds a specified character pattern to a key input character to generate a repeated character. Is provided. In the character input device described in Patent Document 4, by repeatedly pressing a key, the same character can be repeatedly input without performing the same key input.

It is converted into a radio wave and transmitted from the antenna 110. The radio wave received by the antenna 110 is converted into an electric signal by the radio unit 111, and the electric signal is converted into voice by the receiving unit 116 having a speaker for outputting voice via the control unit 112 and the voice processing unit 114. .

  The main part of the terminal device according to the present embodiment is shown in FIG. The terminal device according to the present embodiment includes a control unit 112, a key input unit 118, and a display unit 119. The control unit 112 has a CPU 113. Below, control part 112 explains operation including the function of CPU113.

  When creating a text such as an email, the user operates the key input unit 118. The key input unit 118 acquires a character string by a user operation, and the control unit 112 converts the character string and causes the display unit 119 to display a list of selection candidates. The user operates the key input unit 118 to select a phrase to be converted from the selection candidates displayed on the display unit 119. The key input unit 118 acquires information corresponding to the phrase to be selected, and the control unit 112 determines the conversion from the selection candidates, and causes the display unit 119 to display the phrase for which conversion has been determined.

  For example, when the user operates the key input unit 118 and inputs “thank you”, the control unit 112 converts “thank you” and displays a selection candidate as shown in FIG. 3A on the display unit 119. Let The user operates the key input unit 118 to select the phrase “thank you” to be converted from the selection candidates displayed on the display unit 119. The key input unit 118 acquires information corresponding to the phrase “Thank you” to be selected, and the control unit 112 confirms the conversion from the selection candidates, and the phrase “Thank you” whose conversion is confirmed as shown in FIG. Is displayed on the display unit 119.

  At any time when the user creates a sentence, when he wants to superimpose a phrase whose conversion has been confirmed previously, he / she operates the key input unit 118 to give a re-input instruction to superimpose the inputted character string and convert it. put out. When the key input unit 118 acquires a re-input instruction, the control unit 112 causes the display unit 119 to display a list of character string selection candidates corresponding to the phrase whose conversion has been confirmed earlier. The user operates the key input unit 118 to select a phrase to be converted from among the selection candidates displayed on the display unit 119. The key input unit 118 acquires information corresponding to the phrase to be selected, and the control unit 112 reconfirms the conversion from the selection candidates displayed again, and causes the display unit 119 to display the reconfirmed phrase of the conversion.

  For example, after the user selects a phrase “Thank you” from the selection candidates, the user operates the key input unit 118 to issue a re-input instruction to superimpose and convert the input character string. When the key input unit 118 obtains a re-input instruction, the control unit 112 displays again a list of selection candidates as shown in FIG. 4A corresponding to the phrase “Thank you” for which the conversion was previously confirmed on the display unit 119. Let The user operates the key input unit 118 to select a phrase “m (__) m” to be converted from among the selection candidates displayed on the display unit 119. The key input unit 118 acquires information corresponding to the phrase to be selected, and the control unit 112 reconfirms the conversion from the selection candidates displayed again, and reconfirms the conversion as shown in FIG. The phrase “(__) m” is displayed on the display unit 119.

  According to the terminal device of the present embodiment, when a phrase converted from the same character string is inserted into the immediately preceding phrase, the same character string can be repeatedly inserted without key input. For example, when the phrase “m (__) m” converted from the character string “Thank you” is inserted over the immediately preceding phrase “Thank you”, the same character string may be repeatedly inserted without key input. it can.

  Furthermore, it is desirable that the terminal device 100 further includes a storage unit that stores a combination of a phrase that has been confirmed to be converted and a phrase that has been confirmed to be converted again, as a selection candidate corresponding to the input character string. The principal part of the terminal device 100 provided with the memory | storage part 120 is shown in FIG. The storage unit 120 includes a selection candidate database 121 that additionally stores a combination of a confirmed phrase to be converted and a phrase that has been confirmed again for conversion.

  For example, when the user re-confirms the conversion from the selection candidate by the re-input instruction as described above, the control unit 112 re-converts the phrase “Thank you” for which the conversion has been confirmed as shown in FIG. The phrase combination “Thank you m (_ _) m” is added and stored in the selection candidate database 121 of the storage unit 120. If the same operation is repeated, as shown in FIG. 6 (2), it is possible to select a phrase combining two or more phrases combining pictographs and the like.

  The selection candidate clauses include not only words of the sentence but also translations into other languages, full-width words, half-width words, emoticons, and pictograms. An emoticon is a phrase expressed by a combination of characters and symbols assigned by a character code. For example, “\ (^ o ^) /” or “(^ ○ ^)”. The pictogram is a picture or symbol to which a character code is assigned. For example, “★” or “♪”. A new character code may be assigned, or a plurality of pictures or symbols may be combined. The same applies to the following embodiments.
