Conversion system for character string

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To convert at once the Roman characters into KANJI (Chinese character), HIRAGANA (cursive form of Japanese syllabary), KATAKANA (square form of Japanese syllabary) and English character and to increase the character input speed, by providing the HIRAGANA and KATAKANA conversion tables into a word processor and using these tables like a word conversion dictionary. CONSTITUTION:The input mode of a word processor 1 is set to a Roman character mode by a Roman character input key 11 on a keyboard 10. Then a sentence is supplied in Roman characters. Thus the input key function is displayed as it is in Roman characters on a display 20. When a conversion key 12 is pushed on the keyboard 10, a KANJI-KANA (Japanese syllabary) sentence is read out of a worddictionary file 30 and displayed on the display 20. If this displayed sentence is not equal to a desired character string, the key 12 is pushed again to read out another KANJI-KANA sentence for display on the display 20.
