Abstract

PURPOSE:To easily correct a sentence from both eye and ear by storing the reading of the same character string as a HIRAGANA (cursive form of Japanese syllabary) code into a file separately from the KANA (Japanese syllabary/ KANJI (Chinese character) converted character code and outputting the stored HIRAGANA code at the time of correcting a sentence, as a voice. CONSTITUTION:The title processor has a means to store separately a converted character code into one file and the reading of a character string which is not converted, as a HIRAGANA code into other file, respectively and a voice output means to output the HIRAGANA code stored in the file as a voice. Namely, the character inputted from a keyboard 5 is KANA/KANJI converted by a main body 4, stored into a file 6 for a KANJI code and the HIRAGANA code of the reading of the same character string is stored into a file 7 for a HIRAGANA code. Next, when the prepared sentence is corrected, the HIRAGANA code is sent from the file 7 for HIRAGANA to a voice output part 8 and outputted by a voice from a speaker 3. Thus, the correction of the prepared sentence can be easily executed by both eye and ear.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a Japanese word processor, and more particularly to a Japanese word processor improved to enable voice output.

[Conventional technology]

In storing character codes, conventional Japanese word processors convert input character strings into kana-kanji and then store them in one file. Also, the output of the created document was only on the display and printer.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The conventional Japanese word processors mentioned above either display the text on the screen and proofread it on the spot while looking at the screen, or print the text once and print it out. After making corrections, the text displayed on the screen was proofread while checking the changes, so there were drawbacks such as oversights and time consuming.

[Means to solve the problem]

The Japanese word processor of the present invention converts a character string input when inputting a document into kana-kanji and stores the converted character code in a file, and converts the converted character code into one file. Another reading of the string before it is written in hiragana code.
The present invention is characterized by having means for separately storing the hiragana codes in two files, and an audio output means for outputting the hiragana codes stored in the files as audio.

〔Example〕

Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is an external view of one embodiment of the present invention.

1 is the display, 2 is the floppy disk drive,
3 is a speaker, 4 is a main body, and 5 is a keyboard.

FIG. 2 is a functional block diagram of FIG. 1. keyboard 5
The characters inputted from the main body 4 are converted into kana-kanji and stored in a kanji code file 6, and the hiragana code of the same character string reading is stored in a hiragana code file 7. Next, when proofreading the created text, the hiragana code is sent from the hiragana file 7 to the audio output section 8 and outputted as audio from the speaker 3.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the present invention stores the reading of the same character string in a file as hiragana code, in addition to the character code converted to kana-kanji, and outputs the stored hiragana code as audio when proofreading the text. This has the effect of making it easier to proofread texts both visually and aurally.

Claims (1)

[Claims] Converts the character string entered during document input into kana-kanji,
Store converted character codes in a file In Japanese word processors, the converted character codes are stored in one file, and the reading of the character string before conversion is stored separately in the form of hiragana code in another file. 1. A Japanese word processor, comprising: a means for outputting a hiragana code stored in a file; and a voice output means for outputting a hiragana code stored in a file as voice.
