JPS58176738A - Kana (japanese syllabary)-kanji (chinese character) converter - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To ensure the output and display of a Chinese character even though a user does not know the reading, radical and the number of strokes of the Chinese character, by inputting a declensional KANA ending and then outputting and displaying a Japanese rendering of Chinese character with the declensional KANA ending. CONSTITUTION:A KANA input key group 1 comprises keys corresponding the KANA letters of the Japanese syllabary. With a push of the input key, the input signals of the reading and the declensional KANA ending of a Chinese character are sent to a CPU5. The declensional KANA ending is fed via the key group 1, and a declensional KANA ending/Chinese character key 2 is pushed. Then the starting signals for retrieval and display of the Chinese character which are produced by an input of the declensional KANA ending are sent to the CPU5. The CPU5 extracts the character information on the reading, the declensional KANA ending, etc. of the Chinese character which is stored in an ROM7 and a Chinese character pattern corresponding to the character information out of an ROM8. These information and pattern are converted into display signals and displayed to a display 6. At the same time, the CPU5 retrieves ROM7 and 8 with operation of a reading key 3 to display another way of reading of the Chinese character displayed to the display 6. While the CPU5 retrieves the ROM7 and 8, and then displays the reading of the Chinese character displayed to the display 6.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a kana-to-kanji converter, and more specifically, it outputs and displays the kanji with the okurikana by hand, and further outputs and displays other readings of the kanji that have been output and displayed. Regarding the kana-kanji converter.

By inputting the reading of a recent kanji, it will output and display the kanji that reads that way, and also by inputting the radical and number of strokes of the kanji and a kana-kanji converter that outputs and displays other readings of the displayed kanji. Various kana-to-kanji converters have been proposed that output and display kanji characters and further output and display the readings of the output and displayed kanji characters.

Among these conventional kana-kanji converters, the former type of kana-kanji converter that inputs the reading cannot be used because the reading cannot be input unless the operator knows how to read the kanji he or she wants to know. Furthermore, the latter type of kana-to-kanji converter, which requires input of radicals and number of strokes, cannot be used unless the operator knows the exact radical and number of strokes of the desired kanji.

Operators rarely know the exact radicals, and few operators know the correct stroke order to know the exact number of strokes.

The present invention was made in order to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks, and is a kana-kanji conversion system that allows the operator to output and display the desired kanji without knowing how to read the kanji, its radicals, or the number of strokes. The purpose is to provide an opportunity.

In order to achieve the above object, the kana-kanji converter according to the present invention adopts a configuration in which, by inputting an okurikana, a kunyomi kanji with an okushikana attached to the okurikana is output and displayed.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of the overall configuration of a kana-kanji converter according to the present invention. CPU 5, which is the central processing unit
The input keys of the kana human power key group 1, the forwarding kana kanji key 2, the reading key 3, and the kanji key 4 are connected to the input key group 1, and a fixed storage device (?OM) 7.8 is also read directly. Furthermore, CPU
A display 6 is read directly at S as an output device.

The CPU 5, which is the center of the entire configuration, is a one-chip LSI with a control unit 5A and a read-only memory (ROM) 5.
B. It is configured with a built-in random access memory (RAM) 5C, etc., and stores the character information stored in the fixed storage device 7 and the corresponding kanji turn based on the input signal from the input key. The input is input from the device 8, subjected to various signal processing, converted to a display signal, and outputted to the display 6 to display kana or kanji, etc. on the display 6, and the entire system is controlled by a known control method using a ROM. Wholesale.

Kana human power key group 1 among the input keys of the input device of the CPU 5
is composed of kana keys corresponding to the 50-syllabary kana such as "Aiueo...", and when pressed by the operator, the reading and sending kana input signals are sent to the rcpu5. The okuri kana kanji key 2 is used to manually search kanji for kanji, specify display operations, and send input signals to the CPU 5 when pressed by the operator.
When pressed, the 0 reading key 3 sends an input signal for specifying and starting the operation of searching and displaying the reading of the kanji displayed on the display 6 to the CPU 5. In addition, when the kanji key 4 is pressed, an input signal is sent to the CPU to specify and start the operation of searching and displaying the kanji whose reading is displayed on the display.
Send to 5.

A display device 6, which is an output device of the CPU 5, displays kanji, readings, and okurikana using display signals output from the CPU 5. In addition, the fixed storage device 7 stores character information such as how to read the kanji, presence or absence of okurikana and okushikana and the number of them that can be omitted, address addresses of other kanji readings, kanji codes, etc., corresponding to each address. remembered. Its storage structure is shown in FIG. 2, and includes an address section 11, a pronunciation storage section 12 corresponding to each address, an okukana presence/absence storage section 13, an abbreviation storage section 14, a related storage section 15, and a kanji code. It is composed of a storage section 16. Reading storage unit 12
For example, each address address JOO01 of the address section 11
Corresponding to j~l'-4096J, there are 4 kana data of on-yomi, kun-yomi, and kun-yomi with shu-shikana of 1945 commonly used kanji.
096 words are stored 0 Also, as shown by the "-" between the kana in the figure, the separation position between the pronunciation and the kana is also stored. The data of "l" is stored in the kana presence/absence storage unit 13 if there is a kana in the pronunciation in the reading storage part 12, and rOJ if there is no kana in the pronunciation, thereby storing the presence or absence of the kana. There is. The number of abbreviations storage unit 14 stores the number of characters to be omitted from the beginning of the okukana part of the data in the pronunciation storage unit 12 when there is a character that can be omitted in the okukana part. For example "0"
In the case of , it indicates that there is no okurikana that can be omitted, or that there is no okurikana itself, and in the case of ``1'', it indicates that the first character of the okurikana part can be omitted. 0 related storage section 15 stores an address where other reading data is stored when the kanji corresponding to the reading data in the reading storage 12 has other readings. l'-0000 if the kanji has no other reading.
J is stored, and a code indicating a kanji pattern indicated by the corresponding code 17 is stored as a 4-digit code for each kanji character. It is still remembered. Further, a fixed storage device 8 connected to the CPU 5 stores kanji patterns for displaying kanji characters, and each pattern corresponds to a kanji code stored in a kanji code storage section 16 of the fixed storage device 7. ,
The kanji pattern data corresponding to the kanji code specified by the CPU 5 is output to the CPU S. The kanji patterns stored in the fixed storage device 8 are commonly used kanji 1945.
Corresponds to a character.

In this embodiment, it is assumed that the fixed storage devices 7 and 8 store data for 4096 words of 1945 commonly used kanji and their on-yomi, kun-yomi, and okuyomi with okurikana. On-yomi, kun-yomi, and kun-yomi with okurikana are just under 4,000 words long, so if you can memorize 4,096 words, it is sufficiently effective for general use.

The operation of the kana-kanji converter according to the present invention configured as described above will be explained using the flowcharts shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. First, we will explain the operation of searching and displaying the kanji that accompanies the okurikana from the okurikana, and the operation of searching and displaying the reading of the searched and displayed kanji and other readings, using "exclusively" as an example, and then The operation of searching for and displaying a kanji by its reading (including the kanji with okurikana) and the operation of searching and displaying other readings of the kanji will be explained using the flowchart of FIG. First of all, in Al, "ra" of kana Jinrikiki 1 group 1
When you press , "Ra" will appear on display 6 in response to the input at A2.
is displayed to inform the operator that "ra" has been input.

Next, press the forwarding kana-kanji key 2 at A3, and call up the reading data, forwarding kana presence/absence data, etc. of the first address "0001J" of the fixed storage device 7 at A4.Next, press A4.
If the data in the sending kana presence/absence storage unit 13 is "0" in step 5, it is determined that there is no sending kana in the reading of the same address.

Then proceed to B1. B1 is N for determining whether the called data is the data at the final address.

If so, there is no vertical stroke in the okurikana input at the final address, and the process ends at B3.

This time it is the first address at address “0001”, so YESfB2
The process advances to address j'-0001J plus 1 to call up reading data, kana kana presence/absence data, etc. of address "ooo2", and returns to A5. At A5, [the sending kana presence/absence data at address OOO2J is "1", indicating YES, and the process advances to A6. In A6, the input okurikana "ra" was called [0002
Address J's okurikana [garumonode okurikana abbreviated number storage unit 1]
Due to the omitted number "1" in 4, select YES. Proceed to C2 and select "
Compare the input kanji kana ``ra'' with ``ru'', which is a school of ``ru'' from ``garu''. If it is the same here, select YES and proceed to AI, but this time it is different, so return to B1. In this way, the process is repeated until the sending kana entered at A6 "Ra" and the sending kana in the fixed storage device 7 match. If obtained, the answer will be YES and the process will proceed to A7. At A7, the kanji pattern information for ``side'' corresponding to the kanji code ``0777J'' is derived from the fixed storage device 8 based on the code ``0777J'' in the kanji code storage unit 1B at address 1'-0183J, and various signal processing is performed.
The message is sent to the display 6 and the kanji and kana characters for ``soba'' are displayed.

However, this is different from "exclusively" that the operator wants to know, so he presses the okukana key 2 again.

Note that if the operator wants to know a kanji, the reading key 3 may be pressed. When these keys are pressed, A9 determines whether the key is pressed, and if it is not pressed, it is No and A8 is 1.
Continue to display "Side" and in this case press Okukana Kanji key 2
is pressed and the process advances to A10 with YES. The AIO determines whether the pressed key is the forwarding kana/kanji key 2 or the reading key 3, and since the pressing is after the forwarding kana/kanji key 2 is pressed, the process returns to B1 with a NO answer. In B1, as explained above, check to see if the called data "beside" address 10183 is not the final address, select YES and proceed to B2, add [0183J address + 1] and [0184J address reading data, sending kana data, etc. and return to A5. By repeating this operation and adding 1 to the address, we get ``Motsubara'', which has the same okurikana as the okurigana ``ra'' that was input again at address 3922J, and the kanji code for the same address. JO888
J causes A8 to display "Exclusively" on the display 6. This is the character the operator is looking for, so to know how to read this kanji, press the reading key 3 and it will advance to A9, AIO, etc.
In A10, since reading key 3 has been pressed, the answer is YES, and the stored "exclusively" displayed in All is displayed.
How to read address 3922J Data in storage unit 12 “Motsuba-
"1" is displayed on the display 6, and "Exclusively" is displayed.
Let them know how to read it. Next, if the operator wants to find out if there is another way to read ``Motsuhara'', he should press the reading key 3 again. ``Motsutsubara'' continues to be displayed, and when the button is pressed and becomes YES, the process advances to A14.

In A14, the reading of ``Motsuha-ra'' was memorized.
Data l'-2 of the related storage unit 15 at address '-3922J
169J, it is judged that there is another reading, so YES and A.
Proceed to step 15, and here specify “2169” [2169
Deriving the data “sen” in the J address reading storage unit 12,
At A12, after erasing the reading "Motsutsubara" from the display 6, "Sen" is displayed to make it clear that the other reading is "Sen". Next, press the reading key 3 to see if there is a third reading, and the data in the related storage unit 15 at address 2169J [39
The pronunciation data ``Motsubara'' for the address ``3922'' specified by 22J is displayed in the same manner. With this operation,
The reading of the kanji ``sen'' is ``Motsuba-ra'' with okurikana,
The two characters ``sen'' without okurigana are ``okurigana''.
You can easily know by inputting ``0.'' Next, using FIG. 4, we will explain the operation of manually converting the reading of a kanji with an okukana to the corresponding kanji. In the same figure, when the reading of a kanji (including a kanji with cursive kana) is inputted by pressing the kana human power key group 1 with Dl, the kana inputted with D2 is displayed. Next, when 4L is pressed on the kanji key, the reading data is called up from the reading storage section 12 at the starting address 1-0001J of the fixed storage device 7, and the input reading is compared with the data read from the fixed storage device 7 at D5. If they are the same, then Y
The process advances to D6 with ES, and the kanji pattern information corresponding to the kanji code in the kanji code storage section 16 at the same address is transferred from the fixed storage device 8, and the kanji characters are displayed on the display 6 with DL. If the input pronunciation and the retrieved data do not match in D5, the process advances to El. El is used to check whether the called data is at the final address, and if NO, it is the final address and the process advances to E3, which means that the search for the corresponding data is completed. If YES, it means that it is in the middle of the process, so the data on how to read the land with the address +1 is derived and the process returns to D5. When the reading key 3 for knowing the reading is pressed while the kanji corresponding to the reading kana inputted in this way is displayed on Dl, the reading key 3 is pressed to read the kanji in A9 of FIG. 3 mentioned above. The reading of the kanji is displayed along the flow of A10...A15 to inform the operator of the reading of the kanji.

As is clear from the above description, the kana-kanji converter according to the present invention includes an input means for inputting the reading and the sending kana, a storage means for storing the kanji, the reading, and the sending kana information, and a storage means for storing the information. It has a search means for searching, and an output display means for outputting and displaying the searched kanji and kana, and not only by inputting the pronunciation, but also by inputting only the okurigana, it outputs and displays the kanji with the okurigana, and further outputs. We have adopted a configuration that outputs and displays other readings of the displayed kanji, so even if the operator does not know how to read the kanji, the radical, or the number of strokes of the kanji that is displayed, as long as the operator knows the okuri kana, the kanji that they want to know can be output and displayed. It has the excellent effect of being able to display other readings of the kanji as an output.
