[0043] The image generating unit 211 generates data relating to the play of a computer game from the play terminal 3. Based on the gameplay data (hereinafter referred to as "play data"), gameplay images are generated. The image generating unit 211 stores the generated gameplay image in the storage unit 22. Based on the play video stored in the storage unit 22, a play video for replay is generated. Good too.

[0044] The audio acquisition unit 212 acquires live audio relating to the play of a computer game. For example, the voice acquisition unit 212 receives live voice recorded via a microphone M installed in the venue 60. You may obtain it.

[0045] The extraction unit 213 extracts a computer game from the live commentary voice acquired by the voice acquisition unit 212. Extract game-related terms (e.g., technical terms specific to computer games). In the process, the extraction unit 213 performs a voice recognition process on the live commentary voice, and extracts a voice corresponding to the live commentary voice. The extraction unit 213 also performs natural language processing on the generated character string. and extracting the specific terms.

[0046] Here, the speech recognition process may include, for example, acoustic analysis and a recognition process using a speech recognition dictionary. Acoustic analysis includes the frequency components, sound intensity, intervals, and time changes of the input live audio. In the recognition process, the features extracted by acoustic analysis and the features extracted by machine learning are used. Based on the trained models (e.g., acoustic models, pronunciation dictionaries, language models, etc.), A string of characters corresponding to the situation voice is generated.

The system extracts computer game-related terms recognized by the system.

[0048] The selection unit 214 selects each term related to a computer game and explanation information related to the term. The term extracted by the extraction unit 213 is stored in the storage unit 22 in association with the term. Specifically, the selection unit 214 selects the comment information from the term stored in the storage unit 22. A database (DB) is searched using the term extracted by the extraction unit 213 as a search key. Then, explanatory information associated with the extracted term is selected.

[0049] FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of a term DB stored in the storage unit 22. The term DB is At least one term relating to a computer game is associated with explanatory information relating to the term. A term DB is a database that stores information on terms and is also called a term information table. The viewing level of the users for whom each term is explained and the computer games in which each term is used A state of the game (hereinafter referred to as a "game state") may be associated with each of the terms.

[0050] In addition, the multiple terms stored in the DB are terms commonly used in each computer game. (hereinafter referred to as "common term"), and / or a certain computer game (e.g., in FIG. 5 may include terms that are unique to "Fighting V" (hereinafter referred to as "unique terms"). .

[0051] As shown in FIG. 5, the terminology DB is a database that associates common terms with explanatory information for those common terms. The terminology database (hereafter referred to as the "common terminology database") is a database that associates specific terms with their explanations. A term DB for specific terms may be used. The term DB is also called the first term information or the first table, and the common term DB is also called the second term information or the first table. It is also called word information or second table, etc.

[0052] The common term DB contains the above common terms, explanatory information about the common terms, and Correlate the viewing level of the user to be explained with the game situation in which the common term is used. In addition, the specific term DB contains the specific terms and explanatory information related to the specific terms. The viewing level of the user who is the subject of the explanation of the specific term, the game in which the specific term is used, The system status may be associated with.

[0053] The common terminology database can be used for multiple computer games, so it can be used for multiple games. The common terminology DB may be shared among multiple companies. Each game genre has its own common terminology and explanations. On the other hand, the unique term DB may store a unique term for a certain computer game. Therefore, it may be used by the game company that provides the computer game. In this way, by distinguishing between the common terminology DB and the specific terminology DB, This allows multiple game companies to share the same terminology database, which is much faster than creating a database for each game company. This can reduce the cost of creating a database.

[0054] In FIG. 5, the terminology DB is divided into a common terminology DB and a specific terminology DB. However, this is not limited to the above. For example, a terminology DB that integrates the common terminology DB and the specific terminology DB may be used. In the terminology database, each term may be identified as either a common term or a specific term. The indicated information (hereinafter referred to as "term classification information") may be associated with each term.

[0055] In addition, in FIG. 5, a unique term DB is provided for each computer game. For example, the unique usage of multiple computer games provided by a certain game company may be used. A terminology database may be used to store unique terms. In this case, the terms in which each term is used The information indicating a computer game (hereinafter referred to as "game information") is It may also be associated with explanatory information for the word.

[0056] The selection unit 214 selects the term extracted by the extraction unit 213 from the common term DB or the specific term DB. The selection unit 214 selects explanatory information associated with the extracted term. A terminology database is searched first, and if the extracted term is not found in the common terminology database, For example, the extraction unit 213 may extract the term "△△" from the live voice. " is extracted, the common term database is searched using the extracted term "△△" as a search key. Since the common term DB shown in FIG. 5 does not include the term ".DELTA..", the selection unit 214 The selection unit 214 searches the unique term DB using the extracted term “△△” as a search key. The explanation information associated with the term "△△" in the unique terminology database is "Pull the approach with a middle punch" Choose to “control.”

[0057] The display control unit 215 controls the display of the screen on the display device D. Specifically, the display control The control unit 215 controls the display of the play video generated by the video generation unit 211. The display control unit 215 controls the display of the guidance information selected by the selection unit 214. For example, the display control unit 215 uses at least one of the first to seventh display controls to display the commentary information. The first to seventh display controls will be described in detail with reference to Figs. do.

[0058] <First display control> FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of a first display control of the guidance information according to the present embodiment. For example, In Figure 6, when the commentary "This is where player ●● is doing △△" is acquired, A screen D1 is displayed on the display device D. In the venue 60, the live audio is transmitted from the speaker S The output is to be sent via

[0059] In addition, in FIG. 6, the voice acquisition unit 212 acquires a live commentary sound by a commentator 608 via a microphone M. The voice "This is where ●● player is doing △△" is acquired, and the specific term is extracted by the extraction unit 213. In addition, the selection unit 214 extracts a specific term from the unique term DB. The explanatory information associated with the word "△△" is "Use a middle punch to check the approach." It shall be so.

[0060] For example, as shown in FIG. 6, the display control unit 215 controls the image to be displayed in an area R11 on the screen D1. The play video generated by the video generation unit 211 is displayed on the display control unit 215. The term "△△" extracted from the live commentary of the gameplay video was used as a search key to search the unique term database. The selected commentary information, "Use a middle punch to check the approach," is displayed in area R12 on screen D1. In FIG. 6, the program generated by the video generating unit 211 is displayed on the screen D1. Explanation information is displayed together with the ray image, but this is not limited to this, and only the explanation information is displayed on screen D1. It may be displayed.

[0061] As shown in FIG. 6, explanatory information about the term “△△” extracted from the live audio is displayed on a screen D1. By displaying the term “△△” on the screen D1, even a viewer 606 who does not know the term “△△” can see it on the screen D1. The commentary information provided allows the content of the commentary audio to be understood.

[0062] <<Second display control>> The display control unit 215 associates the term extracted from the live commentary voice by the extraction unit 213 with The game situation based on the game play (first game situation) and the game situation based on the game play (second game situation) ) and based on the relationship between the selection unit 214, the display of the guidance information selected by the selection unit 214 may be controlled. Here, the "game situation associated with the term extracted from the live commentary" may be, for example, For example, the term extracted above is associated with the common term DB or the specific term DB in FIG. On the other hand, the "game situation based on play" is the game situation based on the voice acquisition unit 212. The game situation when the commentary was acquired, for example, the timing of the commentary The game status may be indicated by play data synchronized with the game status.

[0063] The game situations associated with the terms extracted from the play-by-play audio and the game state based on the play By considering the situation and the relationship between (for example, whether the two match), the live commentary The video is about the game situation (i.e. the current game situation) or Distinguish whether the question concerns a different game situation (i.e., a hypothetical game situation) from the game situation can.

[0064] FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of a second display control of the guidance information according to the present embodiment. For example, In Figure 7, the commentary says, "Here, player ●● is doing △△. But what if the situation was □□?" In this situation, ▽▽ would be more effective, but ●●'s judgment of the situation is impressive. A screen D2 is shown on the display device D when the image is acquired. This article will focus on the differences from version 6.

[0065] As shown in FIG. 7, in the area R21 of the screen D2, the game situation is "middle punch activated." The gameplay video is displayed. Therefore, in Figure 7, the commentary voice says, "This is where player ●● does △△. However, if the situation is □□, ▽▽ would be more effective, but ● ●The player's situational judgment is impressive. The game situation when this was acquired was "Medium punch activated" In addition, in FIG. 7, the terms "△△", "□□", and "▽▽" are extracted from the live voice. The term "△△" and "□□" are extracted by the selection unit 213. The selection unit 214 selects the extracted terms "△△" and "□□" from the Using "▽▽" and "▽▽" as search keys, the extracted words are searched from the unique term DB shown in Figure 5. The explanatory information associated with the terms "△△", "□□", and "▽▽" is "Connected with a middle punch" Select "xxxxxxxx" and "yyyyyyyyyy".

[0066] In the specific term DB shown in FIG. 5, the term “△△” has a game status of “middle punch” On the other hand, the terms "□□" and "▽▽" are associated with the game status " As mentioned above, the term "△△" extracted from the live commentary audio is associated with the word "△△". The game status associated with "Medium punch activated" is the game status when the live commentary audio was obtained. On the other hand, the terms "□□" and "▽" extracted from the above live audio matched "Middle punch". The game status "zzz activated" associated with "▽" is the game status when the commentary audio was acquired. The situation does not match "Medium punch activated".

[0067] Therefore, the display control unit 215 determines whether or not the game state associated with the term extracted from the live commentary voice is correct. Commentary information when the commentary matches the game situation at the time the commentary audio was acquired, and The game context associated with the extracted terms is then analyzed to determine the game context when the commentary was captured. The explanatory information for cases where the situation does not match the explanatory information may be displayed in a distinguishable manner.

[0068] For example, in Figure 7, the game situation "Middle punch" associated with the extracted term "△△" is The "middle punch" corresponds to the game situation "middle punch" when the live commentary was acquired, so the display control The control unit 215 extracts explanatory information associated with the extracted term “△△” and The phrase "restraining" is displayed in area R22 using the first display method (here, surrounded by a solid line). On the other hand, the game situation "zzz activated" associated with the extracted terms "□□" and "▽▽" does not match the game situation "medium punch activated" when the live commentary voice was acquired, so the display control The unit 215 generates explanatory information "xxxx" associated with the extracted terms "□□" and "▽▽". "xxxxxx" and "yyyyyyyyyy" are displayed in the second display method (here, surrounded by a dashed line) in the areas R23 and and R24.

[0069] In FIG. 7, the type of line surrounding the guidance information in the first and second display methods (herein, In the above, the solid line and the dashed line are different from each other, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the first display method and the second display method may be different from each other. The explanatory information displayed in the first display method and the explanatory information displayed in the second display method may be displayed in different colors. Any display method may be used as long as it is possible to distinguish the displayed information from the explanation information.

[0070] In addition, in Figure 7, the game situations associated with the terms extracted from the commentary audio are If the voice matches the game situation when it was acquired, the commentary information will be Explanation information in the case where the explanatory information in the For example, in FIG. 7, the explanation information for the extracted term “△△” is “ "Use a middle punch to check the approach" is displayed on screen D2, and the extracted terms "□□" and " ▽▽" The explanatory information "xxxxxxxxxx" and "yyyyyyyyy" will no longer be displayed on screen D2. This is also good.

[0071] <Third display control> The display control unit 215 determines whether the term extracted from the live commentary audio by the extraction unit 213 is a unique term or A display of explanatory information selected by the selection unit 214 based on whether the explanatory information is a common term or a non-common term. The display may be controlled.

[0072] FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of a third display control of the guidance information according to the present embodiment. For example, In Figure 8, the commentary "This is where player XX is doing XX" is acquired. In FIG. 6, the unique term “△△” is detected from the live commentary. In contrast, in Figure 8, the common term "〇〇" is extracted from the live commentary voice. 6 and 8 are different. The following will focus on the differences from Fig. 6.

[0073] In FIG. 8, the selection unit 214 selects the usage information extracted by the extraction unit 213 from the live commentary audio. Search the common terminology database using the term "XX" as a search key and associate it with the specific term "XX" The display control unit 2 selects the displayed commentary information "Inflict fatal damage." 15 is a picture of the explanatory information "to cause fatal damage" selected from the common terminology database. It is displayed in area R31 within surface D3.

[0074] As shown in FIG. 8, the display control unit 215 displays the explanation information of the common term “XX” as “Fatal Damage” The explanation of the unique term "△△" shown in Figure 6, "Use a medium punch to check the approach" For example, the area R31 in FIG. 8 may be displayed in a color other than white. The area R12 in Fig. 6 is white, whereas the area R12 in Fig. 6 is white. The display method of the explanation information of the common term is not limited to those shown in Figs. 6 and 8. In addition, the display control unit 215 may display the unique term or the common term in a different display method. It is not necessary to display any explanatory information for the term.

[0075] In addition, the display control unit 215 detects whether the term extracted by the extraction unit 213 is included in the common term DB. The display of explanatory information associated with the term is controlled as described above based on whether the term is included in the search results. The selection unit 214 may first search the common term DB using the term as a search key, and This is to search the specific terminology database if the term is not found in the common terminology database. It is considered that the commentator 608 uses common terms more frequently than unique terms. Search time can be shortened by searching the terminology database first. The search order of the terminology database is as follows: Of course, the present invention is not limited to this, and the specific terminology DB may be searched first and the common terminology DB may be searched second. do.

[0076] <<Fourth display control>> The display control unit 215 is configured to display the number of times a certain term has been extracted by the extraction unit 213 (hereinafter, “extraction The display of explanatory information associated with the term may be controlled based on the number of times the term is used. Specifically, the display control unit 215 detects whether the number of times a certain term is extracted in a predetermined period of time meets a predetermined condition. If the above condition is satisfied, the display of the guidance information may be restricted. Based on the room situation and / or time conditions, the restrictions on the display of the above explanatory information are relaxed. Good too.

[0077] FIG. 9 is a diagram showing an example of a fourth display control of the guidance information according to the present embodiment. For example, In FIG. 9, screens D41 to D43 corresponding to timings T41 to T43 are shown. The following will mainly explain the differences from FIG. 6. For example, in FIG. 9, the above-mentioned predetermined period is set to the time when a certain game starts. The periods P1 and P2 are the periods from when the contract is started to when it is ended, but are not limited to these. For example, For example, it may be a certain period of time such as 1 hour or 30 minutes. The number of times a particular term is extracted in a period P is n>a certain number X (where X>1). However, this is not limited to this.

[0078] As shown in FIG. 9, at timing T41, the voice acquisition unit 212 acquires the live voice “ "The player is doing △△" is obtained, and the term "△△" is extracted by the extraction unit 213. The number of times n that the term “△△” is extracted at the timing T41 is a predetermined number X, where n>X Therefore, the display control unit 215 does not display the extracted term " Displays explanatory information associated with "△△" that reads "Use a medium punch to deter approaching opponents."

[0079] At timing T42, the voice acquisition unit 212 outputs a live commentary voice saying, “★★ player is doing △△. The term "shin" is acquired, and the term "△△" is extracted by the extraction unit 213. The number of times n that the term "△△" is extracted in is a predetermined number X+1, and n>X is satisfied. The display control unit 215 displays the solution associated with the extracted term "△△" on the screen D42. For example, in the screen D42, the explanation information is not displayed due to the restriction. In this way, when n>X is satisfied, even if the term "△△" is extracted, the explanatory information No information is displayed.

[0080] On the other hand, the display control unit 215 determines whether or not the specific The restriction on the display of the commentary information for the term "△△" may be relaxed. Based on the status "Match End" or "Match Start", or the end of period P1 or the beginning of period P2 Based on the start, the restriction on the display of commentary information for the specific term "△△" is relaxed.

[0081] For example, in FIG. 9, the number of extractions of the term “△△” is initialized to 0 when the period P2 starts. At timing T43, the voice acquisition unit 212 outputs a live commentary voice saying, “XX player’s signature move.” "It's △△desu" is acquired, and the term "△△" is extracted by the extraction unit 213. The number of times that a specific term "△△" is extracted in T43 is 1, and n>X is not satisfied. Therefore, the display control unit 215 displays the extracted term "△△" associated with the screen D43. The explanatory information displayed will be "Use a medium punch to deter approaching opponents."

[0082] As shown in FIG. 9, when the number of extractions of the term “△△” in a period P1 satisfies a predetermined condition, In this case, the display of explanatory information about the term “△△” is restricted, so that the viewer 606 can play the game. On the other hand, when the next period P2 starts, the restriction is relaxed. Therefore, even if the spectator 606 is replaced before the start of the next game, the new spectator 60 6 can be provided with explanatory information about the term “△△”.

[0083] <Fifth display control> The display control unit 215 displays the content based on the viewing level associated with a specific term in the term DB. In accordance with the present invention, the display of explanatory information associated with a particular term may be controlled.

[0084] FIG. 10 is a diagram showing a fifth example of display control of the guidance information according to the present embodiment. So, like in Figure 7, in Figure 7, the commentary says, "Here, player ●● is doing △△. And if the situation were □□, ▽▽ would be more effective, but ●● player's judgment of the situation In Figure 10, we focus on the differences from Figure 7. Explain to the heart.

[0085] For example, in FIG. 10, a main monitor and a sub monitor are used as display devices D in the venue 60 in FIG. When a monitor is provided, the screen D51 (here, the intermediate screen) displayed on the main monitor is The screen D51 displayed on the sub-monitor (screen D52 for beginners in this example) is shown. For example, the main monitor screen D51 is set to a viewing level of "intermediate" and the sub monitor A viewing level of "Beginner" may be set on the screen D52 for the player. The terms “△△”, “□□” and “▽▽” extracted by the extraction unit 213 are shown in FIG. In the unique terminology database, the terms are associated with the viewing levels "intermediate," "beginner," and "beginner," respectively. The game image is displayed on the main monitor screen D51, and the sub monitor screen D52 is displayed on the sub monitor screen D53. Even if the explanation information of the extracted terms in D52 is displayed in a manner according to the viewing level, good.

[0086] The display control unit 215 determines whether the viewing level associated with the extracted term is displayed on the screen D51 or If the viewing level is equal to or greater than that associated with D52, The extracted explanation information may be displayed on the screen D51 or D52. The viewing level "Intermediate" associated with "△" is the viewing level "Intermediate" defined on screen D51. Therefore, the display control unit 215 displays the explanation information associated with the term "△△" on the screen D5. On the other hand, the extracted terms "□□" and "▽▽" may be displayed in the region R51 in the The associated viewing level "Beginner" is lower than the viewing level "Intermediate" defined on screen D51. Therefore, the display control unit 215 selects the solutions associated with the extracted terms "□□" and "▽▽". Explanation information is not displayed on screen D51.

[0087] In addition, the viewing level "Beginner" associated with the extracted terms "□□" and "▽▽" is Since the viewing level is equal to "Beginner" defined in the screen D52, the display control unit 215 The explanatory information associated with the terms "□□" and "▽▽" is displayed in the areas R53 and R54 on the screen D52. R54. Also, the extracted term "△△" is associated with a viewing level of "Intermediate" " is a viewing level higher than the viewing level "Beginner" defined in screen D52, so The control unit 215 displays commentary information associated with the term "△△" in the area R52 on the screen D52. Display it.

[0088] As shown in FIG. 10, screens D51 and D52 corresponding to different viewing levels are displayed in a venue 60. The content is displayed on multiple monitors, and the viewing level is matched on each of the multiple monitors. By displaying only commentary information, audience members 606 with different viewing levels can be mixed in the venue 60. Even in this case, the spectator 606 can easily concentrate on the play image.

[0089] In FIG. 10, the listening level of the audience 606 in the venue 60 does not need to be determined. However, this is not limited to the above, and even if the explanation information is displayed on the display device D of the venue 60, The viewing level of the viewer 606 may be determined. A determination unit for determining a viewing level of a user who views the video, and displaying commentary information based on the extracted terms and the viewing level associated with the extracted terms. may be restricted.

[0090] For example, the display control unit 215 may receive a notification of the visitor 606 entering the venue 60 in advance. Based on the ratio of the viewing levels (e.g., beginner, intermediate, advanced, etc.), the audience in the venue 60 The viewing level of 606 is determined, and the viewing level and the extracted terms are associated with each other. Based on the viewing level, the display of commentary information on the display device D in the venue 60 may be restricted. For example, if the ratio of viewing levels is beginner:intermediate:advanced = 5:4:1, then display device D The beginner's screen D52 in FIG. 10 is displayed, and the ratio of the listening levels is beginner:intermediate:advanced=3:5:2. If so, the display device D may display the intermediate level screen D51 of FIG. The display mode of the commentary information may be changed according to the ratio of beginner viewers to beginner viewers. In this case, the display time of the guidance information may be shortened or the guidance information may be displayed in a smaller size. ,Because it is believed that beginner viewers need more explanatory information than,advanced viewers, The degree to which the ratio of viewing levels is reflected in the change in the display mode of commentary information is greater for advanced users. In this case, explanatory information for beginners can be provided reliably even if there are few beginner viewers. If there are few advanced viewers, the information for advanced users will be hidden. This makes it possible to ensure that beginner viewers can easily understand the commentary information.

[0091] In addition, when the screen D51 or D52 based on the viewing level is distributed to the viewing terminal 4, the display The display control unit 215 may determine the viewing level of the user of the viewing terminal 4. The viewing level may be determined, for example, from the user's rank as a player, the user's viewing history, The display control unit 215 can determine whether or not a user is viewing the content based on the viewing time of the user. Based on the viewing level of the user, the screen to be delivered to the viewing terminal 4 (for example, in FIG. 10 , either the intermediate level screen D51 or the beginner level screen D52). The display control unit 215 determines the viewing level of the user of the viewing terminal 4 and the usage information extracted from the live commentary audio. Information regarding a screen to be delivered to the viewing terminal 4 based on the viewing level associated with the word (hereinafter referred to as "screen information") may be generated.

[0092] ≪Sixth display control≫ The display control unit 215 controls the display based on the history of extraction of terms from live audio. The computer game is divided into a first part (hereinafter referred to as the "play part") in which the game is played. (hereinafter referred to as the "play part") and the second part other than the play part (hereinafter referred to as the "non-play part"). The display control unit 215 includes, in the non-play part, the extraction history in the play part. The display may be controlled based on history.

[0093] Here, the play part refers to the play in the computer game based on the player's operation. This is the part where the character is being controlled, and the story in the virtual game space progresses. In a battle game, for example, the play part is the player character's This is not limited to, but includes, during a match.

[0094] A non-play part is a part other than a play part, such as a computer game. During loading, character setting, stage setting, setting conditions in the virtual game space, The story in the virtual game space, such as the setting of the virtual game space, has not yet progressed. For example, in a competitive game, the non-play part is when the previous match is over while the match conditions are being set. This includes, but is not limited to, the preparation period between the start of a match and the start of the next match. The playing part and the non-playing part may be referred to as the first and second scenes, etc., respectively.

[0095] FIG. 11 is a diagram showing a sixth example of display control of guidance information according to the present embodiment. For example, In Figure 11, the non-playing part from the end of the previous game to the start of the next game is The screens D61 and D62 displayed on the display device D are shown in FIG. During the play part, the display control unit 215 displays the play part (e.g., the previous game) Replay footage may be displayed on screen D61.

[0096] In addition, the display control unit 215 extracts a history of terms in the play part within a recent predetermined period. Based on this, a glossary of terms may be displayed on the screen D62 during the non-play part. The play part of a recent predetermined period may be, for example, during a previous game or during previous games on the same day. The term explanation list may include explanations for each term shown in the extraction history. The information may be displayed as a list. The glossary list is shown in screen D61. This information may be displayed regardless of whether or not the replay video is displayed.

[0097] As shown on screen D62 of FIG. 11, the glossary list is displayed for a predetermined period (for example, during the previous game, The number of times the audio was extracted from the live audio on the same day or on the same day is listed in descending order of frequency. It may also show explanation information for the selected term. This allows the viewer 606 to review the meaning of the terms extracted from the live audio. do.

[0098] <Seventh display control> In addition, the display control unit 215 displays a predetermined number of explanatory information based on the time series in which the specific term was extracted. In addition, the display control unit 215 may display information about the guidance that exceeds the predetermined number of pieces of guidance information. may be restricted.

[0099] 12 is a diagram showing an example of the seventh display control of the guidance information according to the present embodiment. In 10, the extracted term is used at the timing when the term is extracted in the play part. In Figure 12, the term is displayed in the play part. A predetermined number of recent pieces of guidance information may be displayed based on the extracted time series. It differs from Figures 6 to 10 in that it displays a real-time glossary of terms during the play part. The following will mainly explain the differences from Figures 6 to 10.

[0100] In FIG. 12, the glossary shown on screens D71 and D72 includes up to three recent glossaries. Although each commentary information is displayed, the number of commentary information displayed is not limited to three.
