Definitions
- the present invention relates to an electronic dictionary that retrieves and displays information and the like relating to a translation and a phrase corresponding to a character string input from a keyboard or the like from a dictionary memory, and includes a phrase represented by English-Japanese, English-English, etc. And an electronic dictionary having dictionary data in which example sentences exist.
- the arrangement of headwords is generally in the order of the Japanese syllabary, and in a foreign language dictionary such as English, the arrangement of headwords is generally in the alphabetical order.
- searching for a word or phrase to be searched every time a character string of a word is input one by one, it matches the input character string in front and the input character
- a word group consisting of J as a component is searched from the dictionary database, and a word candidate list that continues in alphabetical order or alphabetical order is displayed on the display device, and if a search target word is found from the word candidate list, it is searched. If there is no word to search for, there are many methods of inputting the characters that make up the word for search further, or scrolling through the word candidate list to find and select the word of interest. I have.
- FIG. 7 illustrates a screen transition state when a word is searched for in a conventional electronic dictionary.
- FIG. 7 shows a case in which a search is performed using "get” as a search object, in which characters that have already been input are displayed in the upper input character field, and that have been input in the lower search result field.
- a list of search results for words or phrases whose character string is a component is displayed.
- the input character "g" is displayed in the input character display field, and a plurality of words including the input character are displayed in the lower search result field. List is displayed.

- the frequent occurrence order candidate data extracting means has an operation of extracting based on frequent level information and reference count information.
- the headword candidate list has a reference count display means for visually displaying the reference count of each headword. It is characterized by the following.
- the entry word candidate list displayed on the display device is composed of entry word candidate data extracted based on the input character string and history candidate data
- the search target entry is included in the history candidate data
- headword candidate data for search purposes is extracted from a group of headword data suitable for the proficiency level.
- the headword candidate list created together with the history candidate data does not include unintended candidates other than the headword of the set proficiency level, the possibility that a desired word is displayed as a candidate list is improved, It is possible to perform search reference faster.
- the headword candidate list displayed on the display device is a list of headword candidate data including the frequent occurrence candidate data extracted based on the input character string data and the alphabetical order candidate data.
- History candidate data power Because it is composed, words with high frequency appear according to frequency candidate data. Since the candidate data appears in the candidate list, the possibility of displaying the desired word as a candidate list at high speed by reducing the input operation of the input character string is improved, and it is possible to easily refer to the translated word of the word. Become.
- each of heading candidate data and history candidate data including frequent occurrence candidate data and alphabetical order candidate data which are components of a headword candidate list displayed on the display device, is displayed. Since the number is dynamically changed and aligned based on the number of input characters, a more optimal list of headword candidate lists can be displayed.
- a more optimal headword candidate is selected by responding to the reference frequency information and selectively extracting only the headword data having a predetermined reference frequency to the frequent occurrence candidate data extracting means.
