CONTINUOUS CLAUSE KANA (JAPANESE SYLLABARY) TO KANJI CHINESE CHARACTER CONVERTING SYSTEM

PURPOSE:To more correctly extract a clause by allowing not only a character notation and such a time element as a keying interval but also an operator's habit of keying, etc., to reflect on a clause delimiting processing, at the time of determining a clause delimiter. CONSTITUTION:In the case of a system for delimiting simply a clause at a part in which the keying interval time is the longest, some specific keying sequence takes a longer time than other sequence due to an operator's miskeying operation or a characteristic of a keying device, and in the case it is HA and I, t3 < t4 is set, and a candidate (b) is selected as it is. In this state, in the case this clause delimiter is corrected to a candidate (a), a data group of HA and I is stored, and from the next time on, even if the keying interval time of ''ha'' and ''i'' is the longest between the clause delimiter candidates, it is excluded from the candidate object, and the clause delimiter is selected from other candidate. In such a way, the clause can be extracted correctly.
