Abstract

PURPOSE:To enhance the efficiency for converting reading information to a word containing a desired KANJI (chinese character) by storing field attribute information for showing a field whose use frequency is the highest to a word in a dictionary part. CONSTITUTION:In accordance with each entry of a KANA (Japanese syllabary) heading table 20, a dictionary data table 21 is provided. The dictionary data table 21 corresponds to the entry E1 of the KANA heading table 20. This dictionary data table 21 has the entries of the number designated by a field 20b of the entry E1 of the KANA heading table 20. Also, each entry is provided with a field 21a to which a word is designated, a field 21b to which field attribute information for showing a field in which this word is used most frequently is set, and a field 21c to which information for showing priority of this word is set. In such a way, the efficiency for converting inputted reading to a word containing a desired KANJI is enhanced.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Industrial application field) The present invention relates to a Japanese word processor.

(Prior art) Conventionally, as a Japanese word processor, when reading information of a sentence is inputted in kana or romaji, the word corresponding to the inputted reading information is read from a dictionary table and automatically converted into a sentence containing kanji and kana. There is something to convert. When reading a single word corresponding to this reading information from the dictionary table,
If multiple words, ie, homophones, exist, the word with the highest frequency of use up to that point is read from the dictionary table.

(Invention or problem to be solved) By the way, there are generally large differences in the words and technical terms used depending on the document being created.

For example, when converting the kana ``shiyokutaku'' into kanji, it is generally appropriate to convert it to ``shokutaku'' when creating documents in daily life, and ``shokutaku'' when creating documents for company use. It is generally more appropriate to translate it as ``message.''

However, since conventional Japanese word processors read the most frequently used words up to that point from the dictionary table, it is possible that inappropriate words that do not match the document being created may be read from the dictionary table. is high. As a result, the efficiency of converting input readings into desired kanji is reduced.

An object of the present invention is to provide a Japanese word processor that is highly efficient in converting input readings into words containing desired kanji.

(Means for Solving the Problem) The Japanese word processor of the present invention is a dictionary that stores reading information, priority information corresponding to the frequency of appearance, and field attribute information for a large number of words including kanji. field information corresponding to the field of the sentence to be created is input, storage means for storing the field information, and reading means for reading out one or more JIL words corresponding to the input reading information from the dictionary section. and a display unit that displays the words read out from the dictionary unit based on the priority order information;
selection means for selecting one of the words read out by the reading means, when the field attribute information of the word corresponding to the reading information input to the reading means is the same as the field information, the reading means selects one of the words read out by the reading means; The means displays words corresponding to field attribute information that corresponds to the reading information and is the same as the field information on the display section based on the priority information, and the words that correspond to the reading information input to the reading means. When the field attribute information does not match the field information, the reading means displays the word corresponding to the reading information on the display section based on the priority information.

(Embodiment) FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the configuration of an embodiment of a Japanese word processor of the present invention.

The Japanese word processor includes a keyboard 10 having kana keys and function keys.

Keyboard 10 captures reading information and field information of the document being created. Field information taken into the keyboard 10 is stored in a storage means (hereinafter referred to as a "buffer") 11. The reading information is obtained by a reading means 13 that controls reading from the dictionary section 12. The reading means 13 reads the word corresponding to the pronunciation information inputted from the keyboard 10 from the dictionary section 12 and causes the display section 14 to display the word. The read words are given to the selection means 15, which selects one of the words and transfers the selected word to an external device or the like.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of the contents of the dictionary section 12.

The dictionary section 12 is composed of a kana heading table and a plurality of dictionary data tables. The kana heading table 20 is composed of a plurality of entries, and each entry includes a field 20a in which reading information is set, a field 20b in which the total number of words corresponding to this reading information is set, and a field 20b in which the previous word used is set. A field 20c is provided in which the entry number of the dictionary data table being assigned is set. A dictionary data table 21 is provided corresponding to each entry in the kana heading table 20.

The dictionary data table 21 corresponds to the entry E1 of the kana heading table 20. This dictionary data table 21 includes entry E1 of the kana heading table 20.
has the number of entries specified in field 20b. Each entry has a field 21a in which a word is set.
, a field 2lb in which field attribute information indicating the field in which this word is most used is set, and a field 21C in which information indicating the priority of this word is set. In addition, other entries E in the kana heading table 20
A similar dictionary data table (not shown) is provided corresponding to 2 to Em.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing the processing of the embodiment of FIG. 1, and FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram of the operation of the embodiment of FIG.

Next, the operation of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 will be explained with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4.

First, in step 7 531, the field information of the document to be created is input from the keyboard 10 and stored in the buffer 11. As a result, for example, as shown in FIG. 4, [yj] is set in the buffer 11 as field information. next,
The reading information (information expressed in kana or romaji) 22 to be converted in step S32 is input from the keyboard 10. Then, in step 333, this reading information 22
Determine whether to convert or not. This determination is made, for example, by pressing either "Conversion 1" or "No Conversion J" of the function key of the keyboard 10. If there is no need to convert to a word (NO in step 333),
Returning to step S32, the next reading information is input.

On the other hand, when converting to words (YES in step 333)
In step S34, the field 20a of the kana heading table 20 is searched to find an entry in which the same reading information as the input reading information 22 is set. In this case, it is assumed that it is set in entry E1. Then, the dictionary data table corresponding to the entry found in step S35 is searched to find an entry in which the same field attribute information as the field information stored in the buffer 11 is set.

Next, in step S36, it is determined whether a corresponding entry has been found. If the corresponding entry is found (YES in step 7's36), the word stored in the field 21a of that entry is read out. On the other hand, if the corresponding entry cannot be found (step S
No at step 36), Kana heading table 2 at step 338
The word set in the entry of the dictionary table 21 indicated by the priority set in the field 20c of 0 is read out. In this case, since "1" is set in the field 20c, the word set in the field 21a of the entry E1 in the dictionary data table 21 is read.

Next, in step S39, the word read out in step S37 or step S38 is displayed on the display unit 14.
to be displayed. Then, it is determined whether the word displayed in step S40 is acceptable. In this determination, for example, it is determined whether or not a "conversion key" of the function keys is pressed. Step s when the conversion key is not pressed
4 o: YES). In step 341, field 2 of entry E1 in the kana heading table 20 of FIG.
The entry number of the dictionary data table in which the word was stored is set in 0c. In this case, entry E1
"2" is set in the field 20c. On the other hand, when the conversion key is pressed (NO in step S40), field 2 of the dictionary data table 21 is pressed in step S42.
Words are read out sequentially based on the priority order of 1c. Then, the word read out by the selection means 15 is determined,
In step S43, it is determined whether the process is finished. If the processing is not completed, the process returns to step S32 and the same processing as described above is performed.

(Effects of the Invention) According to the present invention, the dictionary section stores field attribute information indicating the field in which the word is used most frequently, so that the word read from the dictionary section by the reading means is Because the words will be suitable for the document being created,
It is possible to improve the efficiency of converting reading information into words including desired kanji.
