Description

Method and device for accumulatively recording and displaying query times of electronic dictionary

technical field

The present invention relates to a method and device for accumulatively recording and displaying the number of queries in an electronic dictionary, and in particular to a method that can prompt the accumulated query times of the queried vocabulary or vocabulary; further prompting users to recite and memorize high-frequency query data , and then improve the intelligence of the electronic dictionary in use.

Background technique

With the increasing frequency of foreign trade and the entry into the World Trade Organization, the ability to use foreign languages is becoming more and more important. The method of querying data about vocabulary, phrases and idioms has gradually changed from traditional book dictionaries to handy electronic devices that are easy to use. Dictionaries to improve the convenience of use and the high efficiency of applications. However, in the current common query methods, when the user uses an electronic dictionary to query the above-mentioned data, he can directly select English-Chinese or Chinese-English query functions after turning on the power, input the vocabulary to be queried, and the central processing unit reads the The data requested by the input/output control unit is then searched for the database of the dictionary. When the data is retrieved, the relevant information corresponding to the data will be read by the central processing unit and written into the volatile Memory, such as random access memory, etc., and the central processing unit sequentially transmits the data in the above-mentioned volatile memory to the input/output control unit for display on the output unit, but once the power is turned off in this execution method and device The queried data will no longer exist, and the previously queried content cannot be marked or recorded. The user lacks a record reminder here, so that the query record operation that can be performed on the traditional paper dictionary is completely abandoned. This is A major disadvantage in learning.

Another issue is that if you want to take a school test or a popular and attractive foreign language test, for candidates, repeated practice is the key to success. Traditional electronic dictionaries only provide basic query functions for users to input data. However, it does not have the ability to automatically record query data, and remind users to pay attention according to the special circumstances of previous query conditions; thus, it cannot produce auxiliary reminders and strengthen drills for users' special needs, and cannot completely replace paper-based dictionaries. .

Contents of the invention

The main purpose of the present invention is that the electronic dictionary provides a kind of device that can prompt the accumulative record of the number of inquiries, especially when the device is started, the user can choose to preset or set the upper limit of the device's working period and the number of inquiries; During the working period of this device, the number of times that each data has been inquired can be displayed, and if the inquiry exceeds the upper limit of the number of times set, the device of the present invention will produce a prompt message, such as reminding that the data is often used and needs to be memorized. It can also enhance the learning effect.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a kind of method, and it is by this device automatically record the historical record of the data that once queried, and utilizes the upper limit comparison of actual query times and the set query times, prompts that query frequency is higher (that is more than The preset query times) data, and store the data in a record area, the user can read the record area, in particular, the record area can be sorted according to the query times, which can show the relative importance of each queried data. Sex, especially in limited time, can be used as a reference index for prioritization in reciting memory.
