Abstract

PURPOSE: To improve learning effect by recording a mother language and a foreign language corresponding to the mother language on different tracks sequentially by the voice recording device. CONSTITUTION: The voice recording device A records the mother language 1 and foreign language 2 corresponding to it on the different tracks 4 and 5. The device A is mounted on a speech multiplex device to generate the mother language 1 by a 1st speaker and the foreign language 2 by a 2nd speaker. The couple of tracks 4 and 5 which are successive in a travel direction B are arranged on the device A and a couple of successive tracks 4 and 5 in the reverse travel direction C are also arranged. An image formed in the right-brain in the mother language 1 and an image of the foreign language 2 put in the right-brain later are put together and the learner recognizes one pattern. Consequently, learning utilizing the right-brain is enabled to improve the learning effect.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION <Field of Industrial Application> The present invention relates to an audio recording device for learning a foreign language corresponding to a native language or an archaic language corresponding to the native language.

<Prior art> Conventional audio recording devices are mainly focused on listening to a desired foreign language (for example, a word) and then interpreting its meaning or determining the level of understanding. Even in conversation learning, students are encouraged to practice response formats using appropriate poses.

There is also an audio recording device that uses a monaural audio generator with one speaker, and uses a system in which the native language (Japanese) is played first and the foreign language (English) is played first.

Furthermore, Utility Model Publication No. 59-9397, Utility Model Application Publication No. 53-7
As shown in Japanese Patent No. 9015 (US Pat. No. 4,139,954), there is also an audio recording device that employs an audio multiple recording type audio generating device.

<Problems to be Solved by the Invention> In the above-mentioned conventional audio recording device, when learning a foreign language, the learner has no interest in or interest in the foreign language or his or her native language, and simply uses dry characters or foreign words that are meaningless. By listening to words, etc., using the left brain to make logical inferences based on the grammar, and creating an image of the meaning of the foreign language,
The problem is that learning a foreign language is extremely difficult, as the enjoyment and fun of listening to and speaking in a foreign language is out of the question.

By the way, when learners study a language, they focus on interpreting the language by making use of their analytical and reasoning skills based on their pre-existing vocabulary and grammar skills. In addition, the current situation is that students are simply thinking and responding using words they already know, so it is not easy to improve their monolingual skills. In other words, it is weak in terms of expressing one's feelings, thoughts, and will, which is the original meaning of language, and it is weak in terms of expressing one's feelings, thoughts, and will, and it is weak in terms of expressing one's feelings, thoughts, and will, and it is difficult to express one's feelings, thoughts, and will.
In other words, language learning is impossible without a comprehensive emotional picture.

The image referred to here is, for example, when a learner hears the Japanese word ``dog'' and thinks of an image of a dog.However, it is not limited to this ``image''; it may include color, auditory,
It also has operational meaning.

By the way, even in the natural process of acquiring one's native language during early childhood,
Just as the starting point must be so-called pattern recognition, in which speech and language that correspond to a certain image are integrated, when trying to learn an unknown language, the image of the learner must come first. When learning this language, it is important to consider how it should be expressed.

In addition, when learning a foreign language to explore unknown areas, the learning method that utilizes the right brain (image brain), which has a musical sense and pattern recognition system, prioritizes the left brain (language brain), which focuses on letters (words) and grammar. It can be expected to have a better learning effect than the other learning methods. This is because words come to us through sounds before letters, and if we stimulate the right brain musically, images will come to us richly, which will increase our interest in the meaning and content of the entire text and increase our motivation to learn. This is because learning is easy to continue for a long time.

However, although the technology shown in the above-mentioned prior art (US Pat. No. 4,139,954) stimulates the right and left brains of the learner to learn, the foreign language is generated first by the speech generator. , then the mother tongue, and so on, so it is not yet possible to expect a sufficient learning effect.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above-mentioned problems, the present invention aims to provide an audio recording device that can make language learning, which has previously been boring, more enjoyable and that can dramatically improve the learning effect.

<Means for Solving the Problem> The problem solving means of the present invention is such that a native language 1 and a foreign language 2 or an ancient language 3 corresponding to the native language 1 are sequentially recorded on separate tracks 4 and 5, respectively. ing.

(Function) In the above problem solving means, when learning foreign language 2 using audio recording device HA, for example, audio recording device A is attached to audio multiplexing device 9. Then, first speaker 7 (For example, modern Japanese). Then, the words of the native language 1 are mainly heard from the right ear 10 of learner F, and the right brain works based on the language understanding by the left brain of learner 17, and the image is created. is formed.

Next, as the voice recording device ff1A runs, a foreign language 2 corresponding to the native language 1 is generated from the varnish beaker 8. This foreign language sound is heard through the left ear 11 and transmitted to the right brain of the learner 17 as a musical stimulus.

At this time, the image formed in the right brain by the native language 1 and the sound image (speech) of the foreign language 2 that entered the right brain later are combined, and the learner 17 recognizes a pattern. By doing this, you can learn using your right brain.

Then, learner 17 repeats the foreign language 2 while listening to the sound generated from the varnish beaker 8, repeating the same pronunciation (adding gestures makes it even more realistic). If you study repeatedly, you will learn as if you were a foreigner, so you can learn the language, improve your memory, and acquire the original content of the foreign language in a very natural way. Can be done.

In addition, instead of trying to form a meaning image by understanding foreign language 2 through logical reasoning (grammatical) as in the past, the emotional image comes first, and the corresponding foreign language 2 is created musically. Since it is a method of dotting, anyone (regardless of age) who can understand at least a certain level of their native language 1 can enjoy and effectively learn a language.

<Example> Hereinafter, an example of the audio recording device of the present invention will be described with reference to the plan view of FIG.
This will be explained based on the perspective view of FIG.

And, as shown in the figure, the audio recording bag f! of the present invention! l(
A magnetic cassette tape (magnetic cassette tape) has a native language 1 and a foreign language 2 corresponding to the native language 1 sequentially recorded on separate tracks 4 and 5, respectively. The audio recording device A of the present invention is attached to an audio multiplexing device 9 having a first speaker 7 and a varnish beaker 8, as shown in FIG. The students learn to listen to their native language l from the right speaker), and then listen to the foreign language 2 corresponding to their native language l from the Niss beaker 8 (left speaker) corresponding to the left ear 11.

Further, the audio recording device A used in the present invention has a configuration as shown in FIG. That is, a pair of front and rear tracks 4 and 5 are arranged in the traveling direction B of the audio recording device A, and a pair of front and rear tracks 15 and 16 are also arranged in the traveling direction C opposite to the traveling direction B. In the track 4, a native language 1 (Japanese) is magnetically recorded, and in a portion adjacent to and corresponding to the native language 1 on the track 5, no words are recorded, but sound effects and the like are recorded. The tracks 15 and 16 are similarly configured.

At this time, the image formed in the right brain by the native language 1 and the sound image (speech) of the foreign language 2 that entered the right brain later are combined, and the learner 17 recognizes a pattern. By doing this, you can learn using your right brain.

Then, the learner 17 repeats the foreign language 2 while repeating the same pronunciation to the extent that he/she can listen to the sound coming from the varnish beaker 8 (adding gestures makes it even more realistic). When you study, you learn as if you were a foreigner, so you can learn the language, improve your memory, and acquire the original content of the foreign language in a very natural way. can.

In addition, instead of trying to form a meaning image by understanding foreign language 2 through logical reasoning (grammatical) as in the past, the emotional image comes first, and the corresponding foreign language 2 is created musically. Since it is a dotting method, anyone (regardless of age) who can understand at least a certain level of their native language can enjoy and effectively learn a language.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments.

Of course, it is also possible to use an audio recording device that magnetically records the archaic language 3 corresponding to the native language 1 and use it for learning the archaic language 3. ' Furthermore, foreign language 2, which corresponds to mother tongue 1 (modern language), does not need to have a grammar-centered and standard material like the audio recording device A shown in 3rd UgJ; in other words, literary works,
If you create audio recording device A using fairy tale 1 as a theme,
Learners can enjoy their favorite works and learn Foreign Language 2 and Ancient Language 3 naturally while having fun, and it becomes easier to listen to and understand their desired foreign language 2, and it becomes easier to speak it.

Furthermore, the audio recording type 2iA is not limited to tape, but may also be a so-called compact disc (CD), which has an uneven surface and reproduces sound by reflecting light. Any foreign language or archaic language corresponding to the Japanese language may be recorded separately on a separate track.

Furthermore, if a beginner listens to only the native language 1 from the first speaker 7 through the entire text, he or she can understand the meaning of the native language as a whole and have an image of the foreign language as a whole in advance.

Experienced users can listen to only their native language from the first speaker 7 and practice translating into foreign language 2 using the following pauses.

On the other hand, by listening to the entire text of Foreign Language 2 from Niss Beaker 8, students can practice listening and translation using pauses as in the past.

Furthermore, even if the device is a so-called monaural device that cannot reproduce the native language 1 and foreign language 2 separately into the first beaker 7 and the second beaker 8, the purpose of the proposal is to change the native language 1 to the foreign language 2 (from image to language). achievable, and the learning effect will increase.

<Effects of the Invention> As is clear from the above description, the audio recording device according to the present invention is one in which a native language and a foreign language or archaic language corresponding to the native language are sequentially recorded on separate tracks.

Therefore, according to the present invention, language learning, which was once boring, can be made fun, and the learning effect can be dramatically improved, which is an excellent effect.
