Abstract

PURPOSE:To every easily and quickly specify a KANJI (Chinese character) of the Chinese language by displaying in order of a voice tone, the number of strokes and a national standard character code at the time of displaying the KANJI of the Chinese language. CONSTITUTION:A dictionary file which has rearranged KANJI groups (for instance, 11-15, etc.) having the same syllable in one syllable unit, in ascending at every KANJI by three elements of a voice tone of pin-in, the number of strokes and a national standard code is generated. When a syllable part of pin-in (for instance, shi) is inputted by the alphabet by referring to this dictionary file, the KANJI is brought to menu display. In this case, the sequence of the display is displayed in order from the first voice of a voice tone code, and when the voice tone is the same, the display is executed from the KANJI whose number of strokes is small, and when the number of strokes is the same, the display is executed from the KANJI whose national standard code is small. This display sequence becomes near the data order of a new Chinese dictionary is China, and the display is executed in order of high frequency as a result, therefore, a user can specify a KANJI very easily and quickly.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Summary] ゛Regarding the display method of Chinese kanji, - The purpose is to quickly and easily identify kanji by displaying them in the order of tone, number of strokes, and national standard character code, In the Chinese display system in which Chinese characters are input and displayed in juxtaposition, four types of tones representing the syllables and accents consisting of the initials and finals that make up the juxtaposition, the number of strokes of the kanji, and the number of strokes given for each kanji are used. It is equipped with a dictionary file that stores the national standard character code for each kanji, and displays groups of kanji related to the same syllable entered by key first in the order of tone, and for kanji with the same tone, the number of strokes is Display in descending order,
Furthermore, kanji with the same number of strokes are displayed in the order of national standard character codes.

[Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a Chinese language display system, and particularly to the display order of Chinese characters in a Chinese language input device such as a Chinese word processor.

[Prior art and problems to be solved by the invention] The readings (character sounds) of Chinese characters consist of syllables and tones. Syllables correspond to the Japanese pronunciation, and pinyin is used to express the 0-character sound, which is composed of a vocal vowel indicating the initial consonant of a word and a vowel containing a vowel. Pinyin is a phonetic alphabet created to pronounce Chinese characters, with Mandarin as the standard sound, and is represented by a combination of initials and initials using the alphabet.

In modern Chinese, b, p, m, c, s...etc. 21
Types of initials and a, e, ian, uang,
There are 35 types of rules such as...

Furthermore, tone codes have been established to express character sounds. A tone is a so-called accent, and four tone codes are defined to indicate this accent. That is,
"-" (dry), r/J (proton), "" (high voice), "
There are four types: \” (left voice). These are 1 voice, 2 voice in order.
For example, the tone of the syllable "shi" is as follows.

Currently, Chinese word processors use a key input method for Pinyin syllables. That is, the initial 21
It is possible to input Chinese characters by touching the type key and the 35 types of finals keys once each. In this case, since tone is not used as input information, many different characters are displayed for the same syllable, and the user must identify the desired kanji from among these. Currently, it only lists kanji, so it takes time to identify Chinese kanji, which have many types of syllables.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above-mentioned problems, an object of the present invention is to improve the display order of Chinese characters to quickly and easily identify Chinese characters.

[Means and effects for solving the problem] In addition to the phonetic alphabet called pinyin for representing the aforementioned taro pronunciation, Chinese kanji have a Chinese national standard character code ( There is a 4-digit hexadecimal code called the bacterial species code hereinafter.

The code consists of the first kanji of the bacterial species arranged in order of pronunciation from BOAI to 05F9, and the second kanji of the bacterial species arranged in order of radical and number of strokes from 06A1 to F7FB. Furthermore, like Japanese, kanji have a number of strokes.

The present invention creates a dictionary file in which a group of Chinese characters having the same syllable in one syllable unit is sorted in ascending order for each Chinese character based on three elements: Pinyin tone, number of strokes, and bacterial species code. If you refer to this dictionary file and enter the syllables of Pinyin in alphabetical form, the corresponding Chinese characters will be displayed on the menu screen. The displayed Chinese characters have the same syllables as the input Pinyin syllables. In this case, the display order is from the first tone of the tone code,
If the tone is the same, the one with the lowest number of strokes is displayed first, and if the number of strokes is the same, the one with the lowest bacterial species code is displayed first. Such a display order is similar to the content of the Xinhua Dictionary, which is sorted by data that is used daily in descending order of frequency in China, making it easier for the user to imagine the appearance of the desired Chinese character.

〔Example〕

FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the main part of a dictionary file used in the Chinese language display method according to the present invention. In the figure, 1.2.3.
... is the syllable part of Pinyin, 11゜12, 13
... has the same syllable as syllable 1, and is sorted in ascending order of kanji by tone, number of strokes, and bacterial species code. As mentioned above, to identify characters from the same syllable, first arrange the kanji groups in the order of tone, and if there are the same tones, arrange them in the order of the number of strokes, and if there are the same number of strokes, use the bacterial species code. Specify in order.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart showing the procedure for creating the dictionary file shown in FIG. In order to create a dictionary file according to the present invention, a data group as shown in FIG. 3 is required for each kanji. That is, the information includes the syllable, tone, number of strokes, and bacterial species code for each kanji. Conventionally, the number of strokes, bacterial species code, etc. are stored in separate dictionary files in the form of kanji - number of strokes, or kanji - bacterial species code, and there is no unified information for one kanji. In the present invention, these are prepared as one kanji data group (step l),
In Figure 3, for example, the syllable “
For the syllable "sh", the tone code is "2" indicating two tones, the number of strokes is 2, and the bacterial species code is XXXX.
In addition to i'', there are groups of kanji as shown in FIG. 5, and each kanji is given a tone, number of strokes, and a bacterial species code in the same manner as described above. These elements are set by key operations using a predetermined sorting tool (step 2).

By the operation in step 2, the kanji data group is placed in the same order as the data appearance order in the dictionary file. In the dictionary file, leave the syllable part that corresponds to the reading part and the bacterial species code part that represents the kanji code to compose the intermediate dictionary file (see Figure 4).
, Delete the tone and number of strokes in unnecessary parts of the dictionary file data (step 3), and create a dictionary file from the data group of step 3 while maintaining the order (step 4).

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, according to the display method of the present invention, the display order of the kanji is close to the data order of the Xinhua Dictionary, and as a result, the kanji are displayed in the order with the highest degree of cheekiness. Identification can be done very easily and quickly.
