Pinyin input method and realization apparatus thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses a Pinyin input method and a realization apparatus thereof. The method is used for shortening expression search time and improving expression matching efficiency when a user inputs multi-word expressions. The Pinyin input method comprises: receiving an English character string input by a user at this time; obtaining expressions or single words input for N times before input by the user at this time, wherein N is an integer greater than or equal to 1; matching expressions corresponding to combination of the obtained expressions or single words and the English character string from a lexicon; and displaying an expression or single word candidate item list corresponding to the English character string in the matched expressions to the user.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of information input, in particular to a pinyin input method and a device for realizing it. Background technique [0002] In order to realize Chinese input, it is necessary to use the input method software to match the character strings (pinyin strings composed of English character strings) input by the user, and search for matching Chinese characters in the thesaurus that comes with the input method software. Existing input methods mainly include stroke input method, Wubi input method and pinyin input method, etc. Among them, the pinyin input method has the advantages of flexible input mode, no need to record root words, etc., so it has been more widely used. [0003] At present, all pinyin input methods are based on the English character strings entered by users for associative matching. When users input words with multiple characters (two characters or more than two characters), they cannot input them sep...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] The above pinyin input method has the following problems: If the user wants to input the word "research institute", but when inputting, if the user first inputs "yan", and after matching the word "研", then enters the English string "jiuyuan" ", according to the matching principle of the current input method software, it will display "rescue / jiuyuan / jiuyuan / jiuyuan..." or divide the English string "jiuyuan" input by the user into "jiu'yuan" and display "just / Jiu / Jiu / Wine..."+"Yuan / Yuan / Yuan / Yuan...", the user chooses the words "research" and "yuan" that he needs to input from the optional words or single characters displayed by the input method software

[0005] It can be seen that the existing pinyin input method requires the user to input all the English character strings at one time when the user needs to input a multi-character word, otherwise, the input method cannot match the corresponding word, resulting in the user can only divide according to the input method The words needed for the final single word selection form the required words, which increases the search time when multi-word words are input, and reduces the word matching efficiency
