Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a kana-kanji conversion device for converting a character string input in the kana state into a kana-kanji mixed sentence.

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, a kana-kanji conversion device has been widely used as a device used for inputting Japanese in various Japanese processing devices including a Japanese word processor.

Generally, there are many homophones in Japanese words. Therefore, when a kana-kanji conversion is performed on the input kana sequence as a result of the kana-kanji conversion, an ordinary kana-kanji conversion device uses one candidate from the homonym synonyms candidates. It is configured to be selected by the person.

As a first conventional example, when a kana-kanji character string "taisei" is input from an input device such as a keyboard and kana-kanji conversion is performed, the kana-kanji conversion device displays "1 position" and "2
“Large group”, “3 withdrawn”, “4 state”, and “5 Taisei” are displayed simultaneously on the display device. Here, if the user wants to select "mass" from these homonyms, he or she can press the key corresponding to the number "2" provided on the input device to obtain the desired candidate. You can

In the second conventional example, as in the first conventional example, when the kana-kanji conversion is performed by inputting a kana character string "Taisei" from an input device such as a keyboard and performing kana-kanji conversion.
First, the "position" is displayed on the display device. If this "posture" is not the desired notation, the user presses a specific key to display "posture", and by repeatedly pressing this key, "display" is shown on the display device. , "Position", "Taishi" are displayed one after another. Therefore, when the desired display is displayed, the user can obtain the display by pressing the confirmation key.

Also, in general, the orthography is not defined in Japanese, so
There are multiple notations with different "sentences" for one word (hereinafter, abbreviated as "notation fluctuation").
There is. In the conventional kana-kanji conversion device, even when there is such a fluctuation in the notation, the desired notation can be selected in the same manner as when there is a homonym as described above. For example, if there are six candidates for the kana character string "Uchikomu", "drive", "drive", "drive", "shoot", "drive", and "shoot", the user May select a desired candidate from these candidates.

As mentioned above, there are some typographical fluctuations in Japanese, but when creating a document for personal use, the user may freely select the notation at his own discretion. It is extremely unlikely that the existence thereof will cause harmful effects.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention In general, for official documents such as official documents, laws and regulations, newspapers, etc., "About the use of kanji in official documents" (October 1, 1981)
(Consultation of the Secretary-General of Japan, etc.), "Kanji table for common use"
Annual Cabinet Notification No. 1), "How to assign sending kana" (Showa 48)
In many cases, a standard notation such as the Cabinet Notification No. 2) has been established, and when creating these documents, the standard notation must be followed.

However, in the above-described conventional configuration, when the kana-kanji conversion device is used to create these official documents such as official documents, laws, newspapers, etc., the user refers to a dictionary or the like every time a word is converted and There is a problem in that the document must be created in accordance with the rules, and the document cannot be created quickly.

Means for Solving the Problems The present invention distinguishes only a plurality of notation data for reading a word and which notation data is the standard notation data from a word storage unit that stores the standard notation data. A display means for displaying a plurality of notation data for reading is provided.

Operation With the above configuration, the user can create a document of standard notation while checking which candidate is the standard notation.

Embodiment A kana-kanji conversion device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a functional block diagram of a kana-kanji conversion device according to an embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, 1 is a plurality of kana input means 1a for inputting a kana character string, and a plurality of kana-kanji mixed notation candidates obtained by performing kana-kanji conversion on the input kana character string. An input means having a conversion means 1b for selecting a desired candidate,
Reference numeral 2 denotes an input character string storage unit for storing a kana character string input from the kana input means 1a (hereinafter, abbreviated as input kana character string). Reference numeral 3 denotes kana-kanji conversion for performing kana-kanji conversion processing on the input kana character string. The control unit 4 stores, for each word, the reading data of the word, the notation data including the kanji, and the part of speech of the notation data, and the plurality of candidates having the same meaning are grouped into one group. (Hereinafter, abbreviated as meaning group information) and information indicating which notation data is standard notation data (hereinafter abbreviated as standard notation information). Unit, 5 is an output candidate storage unit that stores all candidates for a plurality of notation data obtained by performing Kana-Kanji conversion on an input Kana character string, and 6 is stored in the output candidate storage unit 5. For each of the number of candidates, a character string discriminating unit that discriminates whether or not the candidate has the same meaning and which candidate is the standard notation, and 7 has the same meaning group information according to the result discriminated by the character string discriminating unit 6. In other words, when there are multiple candidates with the same meaning, all of those candidates are stored, and when there is only one candidate with the same semantic group information, only that candidate is stored, and when multiple candidates are stored, those candidates are stored. Among the candidates, an output character string storage unit that stores the standard notation candidate separately from other candidates, and 8 indicates a normal display method of the candidate when the output character string storage unit 7 stores one candidate. When the output character string storage unit 7 stores a plurality of candidates, it is a display means for displaying all the candidates one by one while highlighting only the standard notation candidates.

2 is a read only memory, 13 is a random access memory, the input means 1 of FIG. 1 is a keyboard 9, the word storage unit 4 is a read only memory 12, the input character string storage unit 2 and the output candidate storage unit 5 and The output character string storage unit 7 is realized by the random access memory 13, and the kana-kanji conversion control unit 3 and the character string discriminating unit 6 allow the central processing unit 11 to interact with the random access memory 13 while the read only memory 12 is being used. It is realized by executing the program stored in.

FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a configuration of a storage area of the word storage unit 14, where 14 is a reading information storage area for storing information on reading of words, 15 is a notation information storage area for storing notation information containing kana-kanji characters, Reference numeral 16 is a part-of-speech information storage area for storing information on the part-of-speech of a word, 17 is a meaning-group information storage area for storing meaning-group information, and 18 is standard notation information for storing information indicating whether the notation is a standard notation. It is a storage area.

FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the structure of the storage area of the output candidate storage unit 5, in which six candidates are stored as a result of kana-kanji conversion for the reading “uchikomu”.

The kana-kanji conversion device of the present embodiment configured as described above will be described below with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

First, in step (a), when the kana character string "Uchikomu" is input from the kana input means 1a, the input character string storage means 2
Stores this character string "Uchikomu".

When the conversion means 1b is operated, in step (a), the kana-kanji conversion control unit 3 takes in the written data of kana-kanji mixed with the input kana character string from the word storage unit 4, and stores the output candidates as shown in FIG. All the candidates for the input kana character string are stored in the section 5.

In step (c), the character string discriminating means 6 causes the output candidate storage unit 5 to operate.
By checking the meaning group information storage area 17 with respect to the plurality of candidates stored in, it is determined whether or not a plurality of candidates are included in one meaning group, that is, whether or not there is fluctuation in the notation, If there is only one candidate in one semantic group, the one candidate is stored in the output character string storage unit 7, and the candidate is displayed on the display means 8 in step (f).

For the reading "uchikomu", there are three candidates of "type in", "type in", and "type in" for the first meaning group whose meaning group information is "1". In (d), the character string discriminating unit 6 divides the six candidates stored in the output candidate storage unit 5 into semantic groups, and sets them as one data.

Further, in step (e), the character string discriminating means 6 discriminates which notation data is the standard notation data for each meaning group by checking the standard notation information storage area 18 of the output candidate storage unit 5. Then, each candidate is stored in the output character string storage unit 7.

In step (f), the display means 8 displays "enter", which is a candidate included in the first meaning group. At this time, "type in" is a standard notation, and therefore is displayed while being highlighted. If this candidate is not the candidate the user desires, the user operates the conversion means 1b again.
Then, the display means 8 displays the next candidate of the same meaning group, "enter". Furthermore, if this candidate is also not a candidate that the user wants, the user again uses the conversion means 1b.
Repeatedly operating, "struck", "shoot",
"Shoot" and "Shoot" are displayed one after another. At this time, since "shoot in" is the standard notation of the second meaning group, it is highlighted.

If the candidate requested by the user is the standard notation “shoot in”, the user operates the key (not shown in the figure) corresponding to the confirmation when “shoot in” is displayed. , The character string "shoot" is captured as the confirmed data.

As described above, in the kana-kanji conversion device of this embodiment,
Since the standard notation candidates are displayed while being displayed in reverse video, the user can determine which candidate is the standard candidate at a glance, and can quickly create a document in the standard notation.

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a plurality of notation data for word reading by distinguishing only a plurality of notation data for word reading and which notation data is standard notation data and standard notation data. It is equipped with a display means for displaying data, and the user can confirm which candidate is the standard notation with a glance and can create a document of the standard notation in a short time. , It is possible to reduce the work load on the user when creating a document of standard notation such as a public document.
