JPH01241672A - Kanji input system to utilize kana for reading of kanji - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To simplify key operation by utilizing (a square form of Japanese syllabary) KANA, which is inputted as a KANA for the reading of a (Chinese character) KANJI, as reading to execute KANA/KANJI conversion when the KANJI of a name or an address is inputted with utilizing the KANA/KANJI conversion. CONSTITUTION:When a user desires to input the KANA for the reading of the KANJI of the name, for example, the KANA for the reading of the KANJI is inputted and requests a KANA for reading output means 1 to use the KANA as the reading of the KANA/KANJI conversion later. The KANA for reading output means 1 requests the KANA for reading to a KANA for reading saving means 2 and simultaneously, the inputted KANA for reading is outputted to an output data area 4. The KANA for reading saving means 2 saves the KANA for reading to a KANA for reading saving area 5. Next, when the user requests the instruction of the KANA/KANJI conversion to a KANA/KANJI converting means 3, the KANA/KANJI converting means 3 inputs the KANA for reading from the KANA for reading saving area 5 and executes the KANA/KANJI conversion with the KANA as the reading and outputs the converted KANJI to the output data area 4. Thus, the key operation is simplified.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a kanji input method using furigana input when inputting names, addresses, and their furigana, for example, as input to a database.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, when inputting a person's name, address, and their furigana as inputs into a database, etc., the user had to enter the reading twice to perform kana-kanji conversion and the same input as the furigana. Therefore, there was a drawback that the operability was very poor.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The problem to be solved by the present invention, in other words, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a kanji input method using furigana input that improves the above-mentioned drawbacks by converting furigana to kana-kanji as the reading of kanji. .

[Means to solve the problem]

The kanji input method using furigana input according to the present invention includes a furigana output means that outputs the "furigana" input to the output data area by inputting "furigana";
A furigana saving means for saving "" into a furigana saving area, and a "furigana saving means" which saves "
and a kana-kanji converting means for converting "furigana" into kana-kanji as the "reading" of a kanji and outputting it to the output data area.

〔Example〕

Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram showing one embodiment of the present invention. In the same figure, the kanji input method using furigana input is composed of a furigana output means 1, a furigana saving means 2, a kana-kanji converting means 3, an output data area 4, and a furigana saving area 5. .

For example, when a user wants to input the furigana of a person's name, the user inputs the furigana and requests the furigana output means 1 to use it as a reading for kana-kanji conversion later. The furigana output means 1 converts the furigana into the furigana saving means 2.
At the same time, the input furigana is output to the output data area 4. Then, the reading name saving means 2 saves the reading words to the reading name saving area 5.

Next, when the user requests kana-kanji conversion instructions to the kana-kanji conversion means 3, the kana-kanji conversion means 3 inputs the furigana from the furigana save area 5, uses it as the reading, performs kana-kanji conversion, and converts the converted kanji. Output to output data area 4.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, when trying to input the kanji of a person's name or address using kana-kanji conversion, the present invention uses the katakana input as furigana as the reading for the kana-kanji conversion. This has the effect of simplifying operations and improving operability.

Claims (1)

[Claims] Furigana output means that outputs the "furigana" input into the output data area upon input of "furigana"; Furigana saving means that saves the "furigana" to a furigana saving area; and Furigana saving means that saves the furigana according to a user's kana-kanji conversion instruction. A kanji input method using furigana input, characterized by comprising a kana-kanji converting means for converting "furigana" in the area into kana-kanji as the "reading" of the kanji and outputting it to the output data area.
