Abstract

PURPOSE:To give KANA to the converted KANJI with a simple operation by displaying the reading of each displayed candidate KANJI for conversion when an indication is given from an operator. CONSTITUTION:An operator feeds each word with operations of a KANA key, a conversion key and a non-conversion key, and a part or all of input KANA is converted into KANJI corresponding to each reading. Thus the input is possible with a sentence containing KANJI and KANA. A candidate word storage part 32 stores the reading headers of candidate words and their corresponding KANJI. A conversion control part 7 checks first a reading display mode when the candidate data is sent to an output control part 5. Then a read additional control part 4 is actuated in a reading display mode, and the data of the part 32 are arranged with brackets given to the reading added areas. This avoid the double reading input when KANA is given to the converted KANJI with a simple operation.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Technical Field The present invention relates to a kana-kanji conversion processing method in a Japanese word processor, etc., and particularly to a kana-kanji conversion processing method that is effective when it is desired to add ruby (pronounced kana) to the converted kanji.

Prior Art In the conventional input method for kana-kanji conversion processing in Japanese word processors, etc., either the input kana character string is displayed, or the converted kanji is displayed, and these are not displayed at the same time. , it was impossible to input it without inputting the reading twice.

However, there are cases where it is desired to add ruby to a kanji with a special reading, and there has been a demand for the development of a Japanese word processor that can add such ruby with simple operations.

Purpose The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to solve the above-mentioned problems in the conventional kana-kanji conversion processing method, and to convert kanji into kanji that have been converted according to operator specifications. The object of the present invention is to provide a kana-kanji conversion processing method that makes it possible to add ruby characters.

composition Hereinafter, the configuration of an embodiment of the present invention will be described.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a kana-kanji conversion process according to an embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, 1 is an input section, 2 is an input preprocessing section, 3 is a word extraction section, 4 is a reading addition control section, 5 is an output control section, 6 is a display section, and 7 is a conversion control section.

When a Japanese sentence is input as a kana sentence, under the control of the conversion control section 7, it is output as a sentence mixed with kanji through the following processing. In FIG. 1, thick white line arrows indicate the flow of handled data, and solid line arrows indicate the flow of control signals. The input preprocessing unit 2 determines the type of input character string (alphanumeric,
symbols, katakana, hiragana 1 delimiter, etc.) and control key operations, and extracts the kana character string to be converted.

As shown in FIG. 2, the word extraction section 3 includes a word extraction control section 3
1. Candidate word storage unit 32. It is composed of a dictionary search unit 33 and a conversion dictionary storage unit 34, and receives the kana character string extracted by the input preprocessing unit 2 via the conversion control unit 7, and converts the conversion candidate corresponding to the character string. The words are extracted with reference to the dictionary and temporarily stored in the candidate word storage unit 32. These operations are performed by the word extraction control unit 31 under the control of the conversion control unit 7.
controlled by The output control section 5 controls the display of input character strings and converted character strings on the display section 6 under the control of the conversion control section 7 .

Here, when the ζ operator operates a conversion key, which is one of the control keys, if there is a character string to be converted in the input character string, the word extraction unit 3 extracts conversion candidates, and the output control unit 5 displays them. be done.

If there are multiple conversion candidates for the input reading,
Under the control of the conversion control unit 7, a first candidate likely to correspond to the reading is first displayed. If the first displayed candidate is not the desired conversion character string, the operator can change the pronunciation by operating a control key (for example, the conversion key) to display the next candidate. Conversion candidates can be displayed and selected.

The processing described above is the processing that was also performed in the conventional kana-kanji conversion processing, and the following is the processing that characterizes the processing of this embodiment.

In the processing of this embodiment, in addition to the conversion key described above, a control key (hereinafter referred to as "
It has a "pronunciation specification key"). The conversion dictionary used in the process of this embodiment, as shown in outline in FIG. 3, stores a reading heading and a corresponding kanji for each word.

Figure 4 shows an example of input conversion based on the so-called conversion/no-conversion specification method. For an original text such as
When inputting word by word as shown in 03) using , part or all of the input kana is converted to kanji corresponding to the reading (as shown in Q), and a sentence containing kanji and kana can be input.Here, If you operate the reading specification key before inputting (b) and set the process to reading display mode, the reading will be displayed in parentheses for each kanji instead of 0, as shown in ■). .

The above-mentioned kanji and their readings are displayed in parallel as follows.

The candidate word storage unit 32 stores both the pronunciation of the candidate word obtained from the conversion dictionary and the corresponding kanji. When the conversion control unit 7 sends the candidate data to the output control unit 5, it first checks whether or not it is in the reading display mode, and if it is in the reading display mode, it controls the reading addition control unit 4 in FIG. The program is activated, and the data in the candidate word storage section 32 is read side by side as shown in FIG. 4, and parentheses are inserted in the added portion.

FIG. 5 shows a program flowchart of the processing of this embodiment. In the process shown in Figure 5, the converted string editing and the reading addition editing are separated, but it is also possible to integrate the two in the conversion string editing and perform the reading addition editing within that. .

In the example shown in Figure 4, ruby is shown in parentheses immediately after each kanji of each conversion candidate, but ruby is a so-called furigana with a small Needless to say, it is also possible to indicate it in text.

Effects As described above, according to the present invention, there is a means for inputting the pronunciation of a Japanese sentence, a means for temporarily storing the character string inputted by the input means, a conversion dictionary storage means, and a search for the conversion dictionary storage means. In the kana-kanji conversion processing device, the kana-kanji conversion control circuit includes a kana-kanji conversion control circuit that converts the contents of the temporary storage means into a sentence containing kanji, comprising means for performing the input word by word and displaying conversion candidates for the input character string; Means for displaying the runner-up candidate when the candidate is a character string not intended by the operator and means for displaying the reading of the kanji part of the displayed conversion candidate are provided, and when an instruction from the operator is given, the displayed Since the pronunciation of each kanji character that is a conversion candidate is displayed, you can easily convert the converted kanji into Japanese word processors without having to enter the pronunciation twice as in the past. This has the remarkable effect of making it possible to add ruby text.
