[0051]
Next, the operation of the communication electronic dictionary 10 in this embodiment will be described.
FIGS. 5 and 6 are flowcharts showing the procedure of dictionary search processing by the transmission-side communication electronic dictionary 10 in the present embodiment. FIGS. 7 and 8 are reception-side communication electronic dictionaries 12, 14, and 16 in the present embodiment. It is a flowchart which shows the procedure of the quiz reception process by ....
[0052]
In the communication electronic dictionary 10 on the transmission side, in the dictionary search process, a search process for the dictionary data 22c is executed and a quiz problem using the dictionary data 22c is created. In the communication electronic dictionary 12, 14, 16,... On the receiving side, a dictionary game is executed by a quiz receiving process activated by an interrupt process.
[0053]
First, dictionary search processing in the communication electronic dictionary 10 on the transmission side will be described with reference to display screen examples shown in FIGS. First, a case will be described in which a part of a range designated by a user is transmitted as a problem (hint) from explanation information obtained by dictionary search from the dictionary data 22c.
[0054]
The CPU 20 designates the type of dictionary to be searched by the user through the input unit 26 using, for example, a dictionary key and inputs a search character string (word) (step A1), and then operates the “translation / decision” key. When a search execution is instructed, the search character string (word) is searched for the headword registered in the dictionary data 22c. The search character string to be searched can be specified not only by keying each character but also using the history function or jump function.
[0055]
For example, as shown in FIG. 9A, “Japanese dictionary field-specific” “person name search” is designated as a dictionary to be searched, and “e”, “ji”, and “so” are sequentially entered as search character strings. It is assumed that it has been entered.
[0056]
CPU20 searches dictionary data 22c based on the search character string input as search object, and calculates | requires a corresponding headword. Here, the search is performed by forward matching based on the input search character string.
[0057]
The CPU 20 causes the display unit 27 to display a list of headwords acquired from the dictionary data 22c based on the search character string and other headwords following the headword (step A2). In the initial state, a cursor is added to the acquired headword. For example, as shown in FIG. 9A, from the headword “Edison” searched by the headword (search character string) “Ejiso”, “Ejov” “S”. A plurality of headwords are displayed for the portion that can be displayed on the screen of the display unit 27, and the cursor is set on the headword “Edison”.
[0058]
When the headword is selected by pressing the “translation / decision” key (step A3), the CPU 20 determines the headword at the current cursor position (“Edison” in FIG. 9A). Is read from the dictionary data 22c and displayed on the display unit 27 (step A4).
[0059]
Here, when the up / down or left / right cursor key is pressed (step A6), the CPU 20 sets the position of the reverse cursor provided in the area where the description information is displayed according to the pressed cursor key. Move according to the character string. When the cursor position reaches the upper end or the lower end of the screen, the display contents are scrolled to display the description information again (step A7).
[0060]
Depending on the type of dictionary (for example, a Japanese-English dictionary), information related to “example” is added to the explanation information. When the example key is pressed (step A8), the CPU 20 shifts to the example display mode if the information of “example” is added to the explanation information where the reverse cursor is positioned, and relates to the explanation information. The “example” information is displayed (example display mode). When the dictionary key is pressed (step A9), the CPU 20 shifts to a dictionary mode for executing a dictionary search process using the designated dictionary as a search target.
[0061]
On the other hand, when the quiz transmission key is pressed (step A5), the CPU 20 displays a transmission destination designation display screen (subwindow) for designating another terminal (communication electronic dictionary) of the transmission destination (step A10). . The CPU 20 displays a list of user names and icons representing the caricatures of the users in association with each other based on data relating to users of other communication electronic dictionaries recorded in advance in the caricature friend book data 22g. .
[0062]
For example, as shown in FIG. 9B, a destination designation display screen is displayed. In the example shown in FIG. 9B, the names of the three users (friends) “Miyuki”, “Ami”, and “Toshiyoshi” are associated with icons, and the destination terminal (communication electronic dictionary) name is used. It is displayed. In addition, an item “not send” is also provided for instructing not to send the search result to another communication electronic dictionary.
[0063]
Here, when the item “Do not send” is selected and the “Translate / Determine” key is pressed (step A11, No24), the CPU 20 finds the explanation information that is currently displayed. The word is registered in the My history data 22d, and the destination setting is completed.
[0064]
On the other hand, for example, when the cursor key in the left-right direction is pressed and “destination icon” is designated (step A11, Yes), the CPU 20 displays data relating to the designated destination in the game shown in FIG. Recorded as transmission destination data in the management data 22h (a).
[0065]
For example, in FIG. 9B, when the right cursor key is pressed, “Miyuki” and “Ami” (in this case, two people) are designated as destinations on the destination designation display screen. The state determined as the transmission destination by the key operation is shown. It should be noted that not only a plurality of destinations can be specified, but naturally it can be specified for each person.
[0066]
When the transmission destination is selected in this way, the CPU 20 sets the variable value n for counting the number of hints to be transmitted to another communication electronic dictionary to “1” and records it in the memory 22 (step A12). Then, for example, a message “Please enter a character string range for hint 1” is displayed.
[0067]
FIG. 9C shows an example of a screen in which the message “Please enter the character string range for hint 1” is displayed at the bottom of the display screen, for example.
[0068]
Here, by operating the cursor key and the “translation / decision” key, a character string range to be transmitted as a hint can be specified from the explanation information (steps A14, A15, A16). For example, use the right cursor key to move the cursor and press the “Translate / Determine” key to specify the position of the first character in the range, then move the cursor by operating the cursor key and press the “Translate / Determine” key. You can specify the last character position in the range with.
[0069]
Here, it is assumed that the range-designated character string is not an “English word” (No in step A15). The case where the range is designated for “English words” will be described later (steps A26 to A28, FIGS. 14 and 15).
[0070]
FIG. 9C shows a state in which a character string in the range of “inventor / entrepreneur ... telephone” is designated.
[0071]
When detecting the designation operation of the end position of the character string range by the user (step A16), the CPU 20 sets the character string of the designated range as hint data and records it as transmission data of the game management data 22h (a) (step A17). ). Further, the CPU 20 also transmits the game management data 22h (a) transmission data for the dictionary name (in this case, “by Japanese-language dictionary field” and “personal dictionary”) and the data indicating the user of the communication electronic dictionary 10. Record as.
[0072]
Then, the CPU 20 sends the transmission data of the game management data 22h (a) to the communication electronic dictionaries 12 and 14 used by other communication electronic dictionaries (for example, “Miyuki” and “Ami”) as game data through the communication unit 28. It transmits to (step A18).
[0073]
When the CPU 20 completes the transmission of the game data to the other communication electronic dictionary, as shown in FIG. 10A, a screen for notifying completion of the quiz transmission, for example, “Hint 1 has been transmitted”. Display a message. In addition, a message “Do you want to send the next hint” is displayed on this screen to prompt the user to select whether or not to send another hint (step A19).
[0074]
Here, when the “translation / decision” key is pressed to instruct execution of transmission of the next hint (step A20, Yes), the CPU 20 adds 1 to the value of n (step A21), and the above-described step A13 By executing the process of A19, the next hint is transmitted to the communication electronic dictionary of the transmission destination.
[0075]
When the CPU 20 receives the game answer data from the communication electronic dictionary of the transmission destination after transmitting the game data (hint data) (step A22), other communication of the answer source based on the game answer data. The user name and answer contents of the electronic dictionary, and their correctness are displayed (step A23).
[0076]
FIG. 10B shows an example of a display screen when game answer data is received. As shown in FIG. 10B, the answer content “Edison” and the answer correct / incorrect “correct answer” are displayed together with the name of the user “Miyuki” of the communication electronic dictionary 12 as the game data transmission destination. The CPU 20 registers the answer results received from other terminals as reception history data (step A24).
[0077]
The CPU 20 adds up the game result data 22j based on the game answer data received from another communication electronic dictionary (step A25). Here, the correctness / incorrectness of the answer result is recorded for each transmission destination, and the order of response times in the case of correct answers is set in ascending order. That is, the communication electronic dictionary 10 simultaneously transmits game data having the same content to the plurality of communication electronic dictionaries 12, 14, 16,..., And receives game answer data from each of the communication electronic dictionaries 12, 14, 16,. By setting the order in the order in which they are performed, a so-called quick-press quiz is implemented. As a result, the communication electronic dictionaries 12, 14, 16,... On the answering side compete with other users, and play a dictionary game (that is, acquisition of a headword using a dictionary search function). Since it will be carried out, the relationship between the headword and the explanation information can be acquired with more interest.
[0078]
Note that the communication electronic dictionary 10 is operated, for example, when a hint is sent to the transmission destination, such as when game answer data is not sent from another communication electronic dictionary, for example, a “return” key is operated. (Step A26), the process returns to Step A19 (FIG. 10A), and an additional hint can be transmitted to the transmission destination in the same manner as described above.
[0079]
In this way, the communication electronic dictionary 10 of the transmission source arbitrarily selects a character string range as a hint from the search contents obtained by the search for the dictionary data 22c, for example, the description information for the person name, by the dictionary search function. It can be transmitted to the communication electronic dictionary as a dictionary game problem (hint). For example, in the above description, a part is extracted from the description information (profile) about the person listed in the personal name dictionary, and transmitted as a hint to another communication electronic dictionary.
[0080]
Next, regarding the quiz reception processing in the communication electronic dictionary 12, 14, 16... On the receiving side (hereinafter described for the communication electronic dictionary 12), refer to the display screen examples shown in FIGS. While explaining.
[0081]
The communication electronic dictionary 12 monitors whether there is a game data reception request from another communication electronic dictionary 10, that is, a quiz (dictionary game) execution request by interrupt processing while executing normal search processing or the like. Yes.
[0082]
When game data is received from another communication electronic dictionary 10 through the communication unit 28 (step B1), the CPU 20 uses the received game data as received data of the game management data 22h (b) and corresponds to data indicating the transmission source. And record. Further, the CPU 20 displays a window showing the contents of questions about the quiz (dictionary game) based on the received game data (step B2).
[0083]
FIG. 11 shows an example of a window display of questions. As shown in FIG. 11, in the question window display, the name of the quiz questioner (user name of the communication electronic dictionary 10 of the transmission source), the dictionary name of the dictionary used for the quiz, hint data (character string of explanation information, comment) Etc.).
[0084]
In the example shown in FIG. 11, a message “National language dictionary quiz received from teacher” indicating that a quiz using “Japanese dictionary” has been received from “teacher” is displayed. In addition, when user icon data (caricature data) is received from the communication electronic dictionary 10 of the quiz transmission source together with the game data, an icon is added and displayed based on the icon data. In addition, when icon data is recorded in the caricature friend book data 22g in advance, the corresponding icon data may be searched based on the user name information and displayed as an icon.
[0085]
In this question window display, “answer” or “do not answer” to the quiz can be arbitrarily selected by the “translation / decision” key and the “return” key. Here, when the “return” key for selecting “no answer” is pressed (step B4). The CPU 20 returns the game data to the original state before reception.
[0086]
On the other hand, when the “translation / decision” key for selecting “answer” is pressed (step B3, Yes), the CPU 20 uses this information indicating the dictionary name used for creating the quiz question (hint). Display the search character input screen to use the dictionary. Also, the question window display is moved to the lower part of the search character input screen and displayed (step B5).
[0087]
FIG. 12A shows an example of a search character input screen for the Japanese dictionary. In the example shown in FIG. 12A, since game data indicating that the “Japanese dictionary” is used is received from the communication electronic dictionary 10 of the transmission source, the search screen for the Japanese dictionary (Japanese dictionary mode) is displayed. I am migrating.
[0088]
Here, the user imagines a person having the character string as explanation information using the character string shown on the screen as a hint, and inputs the person name as a search character string.
[0089]
When a search character string is input (step B6), the CPU 20 searches the dictionary data 22c based on this search character string to obtain a corresponding entry word. Here, the search is performed by forward matching based on the input search character string.
[0090]
The CPU 20 causes the display unit 27 to display a list of headwords obtained from the dictionary data 22c based on the search character string and other headwords following the headword (step B7).
