Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a kanji learning machine, and more particularly to a kanji learning machine that can perform a test of guessing radicals and stroke numbers.

[Prior Art] Each Japanese kanji has a radical, and each character is given a name, such as ``Kihen'', ``Nogihen'', ``Kusakamuri'', and ``Ukanmuri''. By knowing these radicals, you will be able to understand most of the origins and meanings of kanji, and memorizing these is an important part of learning for elementary and junior high school students.

On the other hand, many of the Kan-Japanese dictionaries that Japanese people use on a daily basis cannot be used when looking for a kanji unless you know the radical and the number of strokes the kanji is made up of. Therefore, if you don't remember the radicals and the number of strokes correctly, you won't be able to find the kanji themselves, and the kanji dictionary will become meaningless.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] Recently, various electronic learning machines have been proposed, but no kanji learning machine has been proposed that can efficiently learn radicals and the number of strokes of kanji.

The present invention was made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a kanji learning machine that can learn the number of strokes and radicals of kanji with extremely simple operations.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a storage means for storing the number of strokes and radicals of a kanji, a kanji output means for arbitrarily selecting and outputting a kanji,
an input means for inputting the number of strokes and the radical of a kanji output by the kanji output means; and a comparison for comparing the number of strokes and the radical input by the input means with the number of strokes and the radical in the storage means. A structure is adopted that includes a comparison means and an output means for outputting the results of the comparison means.

[Example] Hereinafter, details of the present invention will be explained based on examples shown in the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a schematic configuration of a kanji learning machine according to the present invention. On the keypad KB of this kanji learning machine, there are a group of kana input keys K0 and a group of stroke number input keys K1.
, a kanji key K2, a reading key K3, a stroke number key K4, a radical key K5, and a determination key K6.

The kana input key group K0 consists of katakana input keys, and by inputting these keys, the reading of the kanji to be displayed is input, and this input is displayed in kana (hiragana or katakana) on the display LC.

It is also used to answer questions such as ``Kihen'' and ``Sanzui'' when asking questions about guessing radicals. The stroke number key K1 is a numeric key from 0 to 9 and is used to answer the stroke number guessing problem. Kanji key K2 is a conversion key that outputs the kanji corresponding to the input kana when the kana input key group K0 is pressed, and the reading key K3 outputs the reading of the displayed kanji when the kanji key K2 is pressed. This is the conversion key.

The stroke count key K4 is the question key for the stroke count question, and when pressed, it displays kanji and lights up the stroke count mark LK indicating that the stroke count question is being asked. The radical key K5 is a question key for radical questions. When pressed, the radical key K5 displays kanji and lights up the radical mark LB indicating that a radical question is being asked. Judgment key K6
After the question is displayed, enter the answer using the kana input key group K1 or the number of strokes key K4, and then press this button to determine whether the answer is correct or not, and if the answer is correct, check the result. , if incorrect, ×
Display and notify.

The display LC is composed of a dot matrix of 64 vertical by 64 horizontal dots, and one kanji character is 20 x 16 dots, which are displayed on the upper left side of the display LC. In addition, each character for kana and numerical values is composed of 8 x 8 dots, and on the right side of the display LC, numbers can be displayed with 2 digits horizontally and kana characters can be displayed with a maximum of 8 characters vertically.

Also, 〇 or × for determining the answer is displayed on the lower left side of the display LC.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram of the control circuit of the kanji learning machine shown in FIG. connected to the CPU,
The CPU inputs data according to each key press. The stroke number key K4 and the radical key K5 are connected to random number generators RN1 and RN2, respectively, which generate random numbers in accordance with the depression of the keys, and input these signals to the CPU. Based on the data input by pressing keys K0 to K6 using a known ROM method, the CPU calls character information stored in the fixed storage device M1 and the corresponding kanji pattern from the fixed storage device M2, It performs various signal processing, converts it into a display signal, and guides it to the display drive circuit DR, which applies the display drive signal to the display LC, and displays kana, kanji, etc. on the display LC.

In addition, the CPU has a control unit CONT in one chip LSI.
RAMM3, fixed storage device M4, etc. are built-in, and the entire system is controlled using a known ROM control method based on input data.

Furthermore, the fixed storage device M1 has an address section M11 and storage sections M12 to M16 as shown in FIG. They are stored in alphabetical order.

The kanji code storage unit M13 has a reading storage unit 12.
The kanji code corresponding to the reading is memorized,
The number of strokes of a kanji character is stored in the stroke number storage section M14, and the radical name of a kanji character is stored in the radical storage section M14.

Furthermore, although the kanji S1 is displayed for ease of understanding, it is not stored in the fixed storage device M1.

The information of these M11 to M15 is "0", respectively.
It is memorized as a binary symbol of "1".

In this embodiment, it is assumed that elementary school students have memorized 996 educational kanji characters and their onkun readings "0000" and "2047" for a total of 2048 kanji.

The on-reading and kun-reading of 996 educational kanji characters totals about 2,000 words, and if it can include 2,048 words, it will be useful for learning. Of course, it is also possible to store commonly used kanji and commonly used kanji using a large-capacity fixed storage device.

Next, the operation of the kanji learning machine according to the present invention configured as above will be explained.

First, we will explain the case of testing the number of strokes. In this case, when the stroke number key K4 is first pressed, the random number generator RN1 generates a 4-digit random number within the range of "0000" to "2047" in the address memory M11 of the fixed storage device M1, and this numerical data is CPU
The kanji pattern in the fixed storage device M2 is derived from the kanji code in the kanji code storage section M13 at the address in the address storage section M11 of the fixed storage device M1 corresponding to the random number input and generated, and is displayed on the upper left side of the display LC. In addition to displaying the kanji, a question mark LK is displayed at the same time for understanding the number of strokes being asked.

For example, if the random number generator RN1 generates the random number ``0058'', the ``0058'' address in the address storage section M11 of the fixed storage device M1 corresponds to the kanji code ``0187'' in the kanji code storage section M13. "Luck" is displayed on the display LC.

The user looks at this kanji and presses the stroke count input key group K1.
For example, the number of strokes recognized by the user by
When it recognizes 12, press the keys "1" and "2" and "12" will be displayed on the upper right side of the display LC. Next, when the judgment key K6 is pressed, the CPU compares the input number "12" with the value "12" in the stroke number storage M14 of the address "0058" given in the question, and in this case, since both are the same, it marks the correct answer. The display shows “〇” which is
Displayed on the lower left side of the LC to let you know that the answer you entered is correct. Next, when the stroke number key K4 is pressed, the previous question and answer are erased, and the next question is asked by the above-described operation.

Next, the operation when performing a radical guess test will be explained.

When you first press the radical key K6, a random number generator
RN2 operates from addresses "0000" to fixed storage device M1 in the same way as the stroke number guessing test described above.
A fixed storage device M2 generates a random number in the range of "2047", derives the kanji code in the kanji code storage section M13 from the address in the address storage section M11 corresponding to this random number, and stores the pattern of this kanji code.
Based on the information, the kanji is displayed on the upper left side of the display LC, and the mark LB is lit to indicate that a radical question is being asked.

For example, suppose that the address "2047" is selected and "drop" is displayed. Suppose that the radical of this kanji is recognized as "sanzui", and this is input to the kana input key group K0.
Press and enter "Sanzui" and "Sanzui" will be displayed on the right side of the display LC. Subsequently, when the judgment key K6 is pressed, the CPU stores the input "Sanzui" and the radical memory section M15 of the address "2047".
The data for "Kusakamuri" is compared, and since the two do not match, this answer is considered to be incorrect, and an incorrect answer symbol "x" is displayed on the lower left side of the display, and the input "Sanzui" is then deleted. Then, a new correct ``Kusakamuri'' is displayed to inform you of the correct answer.

Next, when the radical key K5 is pressed, the previous question and answer are erased, and the next question is asked in the same manner as described above.

In this way, by pressing the stroke number key and the radical key, the question is displayed, and when you press the judgment key in which you have entered the answer, it will display whether it is accurate or not.
If the answer is incorrect, the correct answer will also be displayed, allowing for effective learning using stroke counts and radicals with simple operations.

By the way, in stroke guessing tests, generally when counting the number of strokes, you often count each stroke as if you were writing a kanji, and you can get the same secondary effect as memorizing kanji by writing them, so it is better to learn kanji. This is especially effective for elementary school students who are just starting out.

Furthermore, although this embodiment employs the same display format in which kanji are displayed in both the stroke count test and the radical test, the two can be clearly distinguished by lighting up the question marks LB and LK.

[Effects of the Invention] As is clear from the above description, according to the present invention, a kanji character, its reading, a radical, and the number of strokes are memorized, and a kanji is asked by pressing a key that also serves as a radical or stroke number question designation and question. It is a kanji learning machine that allows you to enter the answer using kana keys or numeric keys, and display the judgment result using keys that judge whether the answer is correct or incorrect, allowing you to train on stroke counts and radicals like never before. can be provided.
