Method and device for spell checking

Abstract

Embodiments of the invention provide a spell check method and device. The spell check method and device are applied to electronic equipment. The spell check method comprises the following steps of: detecting a character input operation in real time; after the character input operation is detected, determining positions of a first target word segmentation sign and a second target word segmentation sign from the current position of a cursor, and extracting a to-be-detected target character string between the position of the first target word segmentation sign and the position of the second target word segmentation sign, wherein the first target word segmentation sign is a closest word segmentation sign on the left of the current positions and the second target word segmentation sign is a closest word segmentation sign on the right of the current position; carrying out error detection on the target character string; and executing a processing action corresponding to a result obtained through the error detection. Through the method and device, the problem that the error detection result feedback period is relatively long can be solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to error detection technology, in particular to a spelling checking method and device. Background technique [0002] Since users often spell words in the editing process of documents, text messages or emails, in order to help users ensure the accuracy of word spelling, an automatic spell checking method emerges at the historic moment to improve the quality of input text. Wherein, the so-called words are usually composed of character strings, for example: an English word is composed of at least one English letter. [0003] Wherein, the traditional spell checking method applied to documents is: after the user inputs a complete sentence, error detection is performed on multiple words included in the sentence. Although this method can realize error detection, since the error detection is triggered after the input of each sentence, the error detection result feedback cycle is relatively long, resulting in the untimely error detection ...
