The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and eliminates the above-mentioned problems, and provides a kanji input method with readings in which a kana for inputting kana to convert the readings into kanji and kanji is performed by one input operation. The purpose is to provide.

[0005]

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention operates the operation key 23-3 of the keyboard input device 23 as shown in FIG. 2 to operate the kanji input processing program 24 with reading. -1 is called, and means for enabling kanji conversion from kanji input is provided according to the flow chart shown in FIG.

[0006]

According to the kanji input method with reading of the present invention, the candidate kanji is displayed by referring to the dictionary 25-1 corresponding to the reading input by the above means. The operator can convert the kanji by selecting a suitable kanji from them.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a hard structure to which the method of the present invention is applied. It will be described with reference to FIG. This device comprises a central processing unit 21, a display unit 22, a keyboard input device 23, a main memory 24, and an external storage device 25. A kana input key 23-is input to the keyboard input device 23.
1, numeric keypad-23-2, operation key-23-3, and kanji conversion key-23-4. Main memory 24 has kanji input processing program 24-1 with reading, external storage device 25.
The dictionary 25-1 and the like are stored in.

FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a kanji input processing program with reading in accordance with the present invention. This flow
The kanji input processing program 24-1 with readings created according to the above-described procedure operates on the main memory 24. It will be described with reference to FIG. The operation key 23-3 is operated to start the kanji input processing program with reading. The cursor is operated to align it with a predetermined position (reading input section) (step ST11). The reading is input from the kana input key 23-1 (step ST12). The input reading is displayed on the reading input section of the display unit 22 and it is detected that the Kanji conversion key is pressed (step ST13).

The cursor is moved to the kanji display section corresponding to the reading and the kana and candidate kanji are displayed on the screen of the display section 22 (step ST14). The operator selects a suitable Chinese character from the candidate Chinese characters and inputs the corresponding number on the numeric keypad 23-2 (step ST15). The selected kanji is displayed at a predetermined place (step ST16).
The processing is repeated from the first step ST11 until the input of the data is completed (step ST17).

The input method of the present invention is used when inputting forms such as insurance, securities, and finance, making a list of names, and when inputting not only the kanji name but also the reading.

[0011]

As described above in detail, according to the present invention, the following effects are expected. In a system for inputting kana and kanji such as addresses and names, the kanji input is converted into kanji and displayed on the kanji display section, so far, kanji input for kanji and kana input for kanji conversion are performed twice. Since the input operation described above is required, the input operation can be performed once, and the input efficiency is improved.
