Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a word learning apparatus and method using a linked example sentence.

In the present invention, the word to be memorized and the meaning interpreted in the language of the country in which the accent, the pronunciation symbol and the word related to the word are learned are displayed. In order to maximize the memorization efficiency of the word, The present invention relates to a word learning apparatus and method using a linked example sentence provided with an example sentence including a word having a pronunciation and voice waveform data of various native speakers such as female-male-American-English.

The basic unit of meaning in language is the word. Therefore, word memorization is very important when learning foreign language.

Thus, teaching materials and learning devices for learning foreign language words are being produced. These contents are accompanied by the pronunciation symbols of words and words, the meaning of words, example sentences, and voice data pronounced by one native voice actor.

Because short-term memory of a person is usually limited within 18 seconds, it is necessary to learn repetitive word memorization for long-term memory of words and memory retrieval which draws memory.

However, existing word memorization learning takes a lot of time to learn memorization for one word at a time. It is focused only on memory storage, and learning about memory retrieval which draws memory is not done. Disadvantages that forget memorized words in a short time .

Accordingly, an object of the present invention to solve the above-mentioned problem is to display words to be memorized, accents related to the words, pronunciation symbols, meanings interpreted in the language of the country in which the words are learned, It provides a linkage example including the current learning word to increase the number of repetitive exposure of the words to memorize learning and provides various examples that improve the linkage between the words to help the maximization of memorization efficiency. And a method.

It is another object of the present invention to provide a method and apparatus for providing foreign language learning in which pronunciation data of a native speaker is widely and more accurately provided by providing various kinds of images such as female, male, American, English, And to provide a word learning apparatus and method using the same.

A word learning apparatus using a linked example sentence according to the present invention is a word. A storing unit storing an accent related to a word, a pronunciation symbol, a meaning interpreted in a language of a country in which a word is learned, an example sentence including a previously learned word and a word currently being learned, a native pronunciation image, and waveform data;

An input unit for word selection and word input;

When the learning of the selected word starts, the word, the accent related to the word, the pronunciation symbol, the pronunciation interpreted in the language of the country in which the word is learned, the pronunciation image of the native speaker, and the voice waveform data are displayed. A display unit displaying an example sentence including a word to be learned;

An audio processing unit for outputting a pronunciation sound of a native speaker;

When a word is selected through the input unit, the accent related to the word stored in the storage unit, the pronunciation symbol, the meaning interpreted in the language of the country in which the word is learned, an example sentence including the word already learned and the word currently being learned, And a control unit for controlling the display unit and the audio processing unit to display and output the sound image and the waveform data.

If the control unit matches the words stored in the storage unit of the displayed words of the Internet web browser, the accents, pronunciation symbols and words associated with the corresponding words are selected, And a wired / wireless network unit for displaying native pronunciation images and waveform data.

If the control unit matches the words stored in the storage unit among the words in the DMB English broadcast, it may be interpreted in the language of the country in which the accents, pronunciation symbols, and words associated with the words are selected, And a DMB module for displaying the pronunciation image and the waveform data.

In addition, the layer of the display unit may be divided into Home, Dic, and Option tabs.

In addition, the Home tab displays the words selected by the learner in sequence, including accents related to the displayed words, pronunciation symbols, meaning interpreted in the language of the country in which the words are learned, At least one of a linked example sentence, a native pronunciation image, and waveform data.

The Option tab may include at least one of a word output time selection, an accent mark selection, a pronunciation mark selection, a gender selection of voice output, and a pronunciation voice output selection by country .

A word learning method using a combined example sentence according to the present invention comprises: inputting a selection command of a word to be learned from a learner;

Displaying a meaning interpreted in a language of a country to learn about accents, phonetic symbols, and words associated with the selected word and the selected word;

Displaying an example sentence including the selected word and a word learned in advance;

And displaying the native pronunciation image and the waveform data of the selected word.

According to the word learning method using the linked example sentences of the present invention, it is possible to provide a linkage example including the word that has been learned and the word that is currently being learned, thereby increasing the number of repetitive exposure of the words for memorization learning, To maximize memorization efficiency and to correct similar pronunciation of native speakers through pronunciation images of native speakers. It is also possible to check the intensity of accents and positions of accents by voice waveform, There are various kinds of menus such as female, male, American, English, and phonetic.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, a word learning apparatus and method using a combined example sentence according to the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration of a word learning apparatus using an associated example sentence according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1, a word learning apparatus 100 using an example sentence is a word. A storing unit 102 storing an accent related to a word, a pronunciation symbol, a meaning interpreted in a language of a country to learn about a word, an example sentence including a word that has been learned and a word currently being learned, , An input unit 108 for word selection and word input, and an input unit 108 for, when the learning of the selected word starts, a word, an accent related to the word, a pronunciation symbol, An audio processing unit 111 for outputting a pronunciation sound of a native speaker, and an input unit 108. The input unit 108 is connected to the input unit 108, When the word is selected through the word, the meaning interpreted in the language of the country in which the accent, pronunciation symbol, and word associated with the word stored in the storage unit 102 are learned, A control unit 106 for controlling the display unit 104 and the audio processing unit 111 to display and output an example sentence including a word and a word currently being learned and a waveform sound data, If the word displayed on the web browser matches the word stored in the storage unit 102, it is possible to use the accent, the pronunciation symbol and the word related to the word when the word is selected, When the controller 106 matches a word stored in the storage unit 102 among the words in the DMB English broadcast, it is possible to display the waveform data in association with the corresponding word when the word is selected DMB mode that allows you to display accents, pronunciation symbols, words interpreted in the language of the country you are studying, examples, native pronunciation images, and waveform data. It consists of 114.
