Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a kana-kanji conversion device used in a word processor or a computer to convert a Japanese sentence input by kana into a kana-kanji mixed sentence.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a kana-kanji conversion device has conversion means such as phrase conversion, phrase conversion, and continuous phrase conversion. Each of these conversion means has a dictionary corresponding to its conversion ability, and compares the input kana string with the dictionary and reads out the idiom or phrase most suitable for the input kana string from the dictionary. It was

Problems to be Solved by the Invention In a conventional kana-kanji conversion device, a kanji word with a frequently used feed kana, that is, an output character string obtained by performing an adjunct word processing is always prioritized. In some conversion operations, it was not possible to obtain an output character string that did not include an adjunct word.

For example, if kana-kanji conversion is performed on a kana string called "Yamada Kodo", "Yamada degree" is obtained as the output character string, and further conversion operation is required to obtain the desired output character string "Yamada-den". There was a problem that it became necessary to perform.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above problems, the present invention determines whether or not an adjunct word process should be performed depending on the mode in the kana-kanji conversion process performed during the editing process for each editing process. A means for giving an instruction to the conversion means is provided.

By the above means, the kana-kanji conversion device of the present invention determines whether or not to process the adjunct word of a word depending on the mode, and performs the adjunct word processing in the mode in which the adjunct word processing is required.

Embodiment An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a kana-kanji conversion device according to an embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 is an input device having means for inputting a Japanese kana string and means for inputting an operation mode instruction. An input kana string storage unit 2 stores the kana string input from the input device. An edit control unit 3 manages Kana-Kanji conversion processing of an input kana string, editing processing, and display processing of an output character string. Reference numeral 4 denotes a kana-kanji conversion mode storage unit that stores information as to whether or not ancillary word processing for kana-kanji conversion should be performed. The editing control unit 3 stores the information on whether or not the auxiliary word processing is necessary in the Kana-Kanji conversion mode storage unit 4. Editing control unit 3
Stores information on whether or not the adjunct word processing for kana-kanji conversion is necessary for each editing process. If the specified editing process requires the adjunct word processing, "1" is stored. “2” is set in the kana-kanji conversion mode storage unit 4.
For example, adjunct word processing is not required in the address input mode, and “2” is set in the kana-kanji conversion mode storage unit 4. 5
Is a kana-kanji conversion control unit that converts the kana string stored in the input kana string storage unit 2 into a kana-mixed character string according to the instruction content of the kana-kanji conversion mode storage unit 4. Reference numeral 6 denotes a word storage unit that stores word reading, Kanji notation, and part-of-speech information as a pair. An output character string storage unit 7 stores an input kana string and a kana-kanji mixed character string obtained by kana-kanji conversion. A display device 8 displays the contents of the output character string 7.

The second operation of kana-kanji conversion performed by the kana-kanji conversion control unit 5 in the kana-kanji conversion device configured as described above.
A description will be given according to the flowchart shown in the figure. First, in step a, the kana sequence to be converted into kana-kanji is read from the input kana sequence storage unit 2. Next, in step b, it is determined whether or not the mode requires the accessory word processing. Then, in the case of the mode requiring the attached word processing, the process goes to step c and "1" is set in the kana-kanji conversion mode storage unit 4. If the adjunct word processing is not necessary, "2" is set in the kana-kanji conversion mode storage unit 4 in step d. Next, in step e, the contents of the kana-kanji conversion mode storage unit 4 are read out. The content read from the kana-kanji conversion mode storage unit 4 in step f is "1".
Whether it is "2" or "2", if it is "1", the process moves to step g and the kana-kanji conversion without adjunct word processing is executed. If the content is "2", the process moves to step h to execute kana-kanji conversion accompanied by adjunct word processing.

According to the present embodiment, for example, by setting the address editing mode during the editing process for creating the address of a postcard, it is possible to prevent the adjunct word process from being executed during the kana-kanji conversion. When “Kana-Kanji conversion” is performed on “”, it is possible to obtain a desired output character string “Yamada-den” as an output character string by one conversion operation.

In the present embodiment, the kana-kanji conversion mode storage unit 4 stores only information as to whether or not to perform adjunct processing, but in addition to this, the part-of-speech of a word included in the output character string obtained by kana-kanji conversion is also stored. By adding the information that only the proper nouns are used, all kana-kanji conversions can be processed as proper nouns. For example, if the adjunct word processing is prohibited in the kana-kanji conversion mode storage unit 4 and the effective part-of-speech is only the proper noun, "3" is set,
Kana-Kanji conversion processing is performed for all input kana strings as proper nouns without adjunct processing, and address books and addresses can be created quickly.

As described above, according to the present invention, by suppressing generation of an undesired character string in the kana-kanji conversion processing, the labor required for correcting the output character string is reduced, and the kana-kanji conversion processing is extremely performed. Can be done quickly.
