Abstract

PURPOSE:To make unnecessary to instruct timing for a single KANJI (Chinese character) conversion by means of an operator and to simplify an operation by automatically activating a single KANJI converting part when a candidate, which is obtained by using the word information of a word dictionary memory part, by means of a KANA (Japanese syllabary)/KANJI converting part does not exist. CONSTITUTION:When a KANA character string is inputted by an input part 1, the inputted character string is stored into an input character string memory part 2, and sent to a KANA/KANJI converting part 3. The KANA/KANJI converting part 3 divides the character string into suitable clauses while referring to a word dictionary memory part 7, successively converting them into corresponding KANA/KANJI mixed transcription according to the push of a converting key while retrieving the word dictionary memory part 7 for the KANA character string corresponding to the respective clauses, and when the all corresponding words in the word dictionary memory part 7 are presented, a single KANJI converting part 4 is automatically activated. The single KANJI converting part 4 retrieves a single KANJI dictionary memory part 8, converts the character string into the corresponding KANJI transcription, and presents it to the operator.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a Japanese language processing device, and more particularly to a Japanese language processing device having a single kanji conversion function for converting an input kana character string into kanji notation.

Conventional technology In conventional kana-kanji conversion, by pressing the conversion key, the input character string is converted into a reading and mixed kana-kanji notation, and by pressing the single kanji conversion key, The input kana character string was converted into kanji notation with readings, and a distinction was made between the normal conversion operation method and the single kanji conversion operation method.

Invention Solved Problem 5 When trying to obtain the kanji representation of an input kana character string, first press the conversion key as you normally would, but the request does not occur even if you press the conversion key multiple times. There were many cases where the user could not obtain the kanji notation and had to go through a cycle of conversion candidates, eventually pressing a single kanji conversion key to obtain the kanji notation.

In view of this, an object of the present invention is to provide a Japanese language processing device that does not require the operator to perform the above-mentioned troublesome key operations.

Means for Solving the Problems The present invention provides an input unit including phonetic character keys for inputting kana characters, and an input character string for temporarily storing the kana character string input in the input unit. A storage section, a kana-kanji conversion section for converting kana character strings input in the input section into kana-kanji characters, a kana-kanji conversion section, a single-kanji conversion section for converting kana character strings into kanji notation, and a kana-kanji conversion section for performing kana-kanji conversion. A word dictionary storage unit that searches for words; a single-kanji dictionary storage unit that the condolence-kanji conversion unit searches for; and a character string stored in the input character string storage unit and the kana-kanji conversion unit and single-kanji conversion unit. In the Japanese language processing device, the input unit includes a conversion key that converts the kana character string into a corresponding kana-kanji mixed notation as a reading character string, and the kana-kanji conversion unit includes a display unit that displays the converted result. corresponds to the kana character string input in the input section or the kana character string corresponding to each clause separated by the kana-kanji conversion process, in response to the press of the conversion key while searching the W word dictionary storage section. The conversion is performed sequentially to mixed kana/kanji notation, but when all the corresponding words in the word dictionary storage section are exhausted, the Chinese/kanji conversion section automatically searches the word dictionary storage section and converts the corresponding kana character string to kanji notation. This is a Japanese language processing device that starts up.

By configuring the function as described in 2 above, the single kanji conversion section will be automatically activated just by pressing the conversion key as in the normal case, so you will not have to be conscious of the timing to activate the single kanji conversion. Frees you from the hassle of key operations.

Example An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

In the figure, 1 is an input section where the operator inputs the pronunciation character string of the sentence to be created, 2 is an input string storage section that temporarily stores the kana character string input from the input section, and 3
is a kana-kanji conversion unit that converts a kana character string input from the input unit into kana-kanji, 4 is a single-kanji conversion unit that converts a given reading character string into kanji notation, and 5 is a unit that temporarily stores the conversion results. 6 is a display unit that displays the contents of the storage unit; 7 is a word dictionary storage unit 4 that stores word information necessary for the ephemeral kanji conversion process; 8 is word information necessary for the single kanji conversion process This is a single-kanji dictionary storage unit that stores .

Next, a specific example of actually creating a sentence using the device shown in the figure will be shown. For example, if you try to get the word ``mouth'',
In the input section 1, a character string such as "Kotatsu" is input. This input string is stored in the input string storage section 2,
It is sent to the kana-kanji conversion section 3. The kana-kanji conversion unit 3 divides the text into appropriate phrases while referring to the word dictionary storage unit 7 and converts them into words. There is no word corresponding to "Koutatsu" in the word dictionary storage unit 7, and for the reading "Kou", the words "Minato", "Section", "Ato", "Ko", and "Kou" are written in descending order of priority. However, if only "Tatsu" is registered for "Tatsu", the conversion result "Minatatsu" is obtained. At this time, if you press the conversion key for the first clause "minato", it will be converted to "r term". As the conversion key is pressed again, it is converted into ``ago'', ``high'', and ``ku'', but if the conversion key is pressed again, the words registered in the word dictionary storage unit 7 for ``ko'' are changed. Since there are no more characters, the Shin-Kanji converter 4 is automatically activated. Single kanji conversion part 4 is! tL Chinese dictionary storage section 8
is searched, and the kanji notation for the reading ``Kou'' is presented to the operator after operations such as arranging it in two dimensions for easy understanding. The operator can obtain ``mouth'' by performing the single kanji conversion operation.

As described in detail of the invention, in the Japanese language processing device of the present invention, when the kana-kanji conversion unit runs out of candidates using word information in the word dictionary storage unit, the single-kanji conversion unit is automatically activated. There is no need for the operator to instruct when to perform single kanji conversion, and the operator is freed from cumbersome key operations.
