System and method for voice playback in Minnan

A voice playing system and method thereof, in particular, a system and method for voice playback in Taiwanese language.

Dialects are variants of language. Modern Chinese has a variety of dialects. They are widely distributed. The differences between the seven dialects of modern Chinese are expressed in various aspects of pronunciation, vocabulary and grammar. Among the cultural materials left by the ancestors, there are many ancient, elegant and intelligent words written in dialects. For Taiwan, which has a population of 74% of the Taiwanese population, the Taiwanese language recorded in the cultural materials is sufficient to reflect the face of history and the beauty of culture.

However, because Minnan has not been valued for a long time, there has been no formal learning of the language of Taiwanese, so learning is not easy, plus the language learning products currently on the market are mostly foreign languages, and dialectical products (including Weinan Languages and other dialects are almost non-existent. Therefore, most of the learning in Minnan has to be heard through the deafness of relatives and friends. Therefore, if you want to learn from the people who are not heard in Taiwanese, you can’t learn Minnan, even if you want to learn. I will hear people in Minnan, but when I talk in Minnan, I don’t specifically break each word to pronounce. It’s because in Minnan, there are more complex eight tones and a lot of broken words. It is not easy to learn the standard pronunciation.

In summary, it can be seen that there has been a long-standing problem in the prior art that it is not easy to learn to hear Minnan. Therefore, it is necessary to propose an improved technical hand. Paragraph, to solve this problem.

In view of the prior art, there is a problem that learning to hear that the language of Taiwanese is not easy, the present invention discloses a system and method for the voice playback of the Taiwanese language, wherein: The system for voice playback of the Taiwanese language disclosed in the present invention comprises: a data library for storing a sound file; an input module for inputting a target word; a word segmentation module for dividing the target word into at least one word a reading module for reading each of the Minnan phonetic data corresponding to each word in the database, and reading each sound file belonging to each word according to each Pinyin phonetic data to the database; The group is arranged to display the Pinyin materials of the Minnan dialect according to the order in which the words are arranged in the target words and phrases; the playing module is configured to play the sound files according to the order in which the words are arranged in the target words and sentences, wherein: The unit is configured to determine whether the sound file played by the played module is the last sound file to which each word belongs, and if the played sound file is the last sound file to which each word belongs, the control play module play is played. After the sound file is completed, the specific time is delayed. After the word segmentation module divides the target words into words, the reading module is based on the corresponding words. Read data word phonetic sound file, and play the sound file playback module, judging by the control unit a short time delay broadcast module to separate the individual words, so as to solve the problems of the prior art.

The method for playing the voice of the Minnan dialect disclosed in the present invention includes the following Steps: input the target words; divide the target words into at least one word; read each Pinyin data corresponding to each word; read each sound file belonging to each word; arrange the words in the target words according to each word In the order of the middle, the Pinyin data of the Minnan dialect is arranged; according to the order in which the words are arranged in the target phrase, the sound file is sequentially played, and when the played sound file is judged to be the last sound file to which each word belongs, After the played sound file is played, the next sound file is played after a certain time delay. After dividing the target word into a word, the sound file of the word is read according to the Pinyin data of the corresponding word, and is played. In the case of sound files, delay the short time to separate the words to solve the problems of the prior art.

The system and method disclosed in the present invention are as above, and the difference between the prior art and the prior art is that the present invention divides the target words belonging to the Minnan language into words, and reads the sound of the words according to the Pinyin materials corresponding to the words. Files, and when playing the sound files in Minnan, delay a short time to separate the words. Through the above technical means, the present invention can achieve the technical effect of increasing the user's listening and speaking ability in Minnan.

The detailed features and embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the drawings and embodiments, which are sufficient to enable those skilled in the art to readily understand the technical means to which the present invention solves the technical problems. The achievable effect of the invention.

The syllable structure of Taiwanese Minnanese is similar to that of Chinese, and is divided into "consonant" and "rhythm". The three major parts of the mother and the "tone", a "consonant", a "final" and a "tone" are called a "syllable." According to the information of the well-known, Taiwanese Minnan dialect has a combination of 756 "consonants" and "finalists", and has eight tones, namely "Yin Ping", "Yin Shang", "Yin Go", "Yin Yin", "Yang Ping", "Yang Shang", "Yang Go" and "Yang In".

Hereinafter, the system operation of the present invention will be described with reference to the system architecture diagram of the voice playback of the Minnan language proposed in the "Fig. 1". As shown in FIG. 1, the system of the present invention includes a database 110, an input module 120, a segmentation module 130, a reading module 150, a display module 160, and a playback module 170.

The database 110 is responsible for storing the words of Taiwanese Minnan, as well as Taiwanese Pinyin materials that can express the pronunciation of each word. The database 110 may store the phrase list 300 of the Taiwanese language in Taiwan as shown in the "Fig. 2". The phrase table 300 includes a phrase field 310 and a pinyin field 320. The phrase field 310 records the phrase in the Minnan dialect, and the pinyin field 320 records the Taiwanese Minnan phonetic data of the phrase. Generally speaking, the Taiwanese Minnan pronunciation pinyin material is Taiwanese Roman Pinyin, but the invention is not limited thereto. The Taiwanese Minnan Pinyin data of the same material in the phrase table 300 is the pronunciation of the corresponding phrase.

The database 110 is also responsible for storing the sound files of each syllable in Taiwanese Minnan. Generally speaking, the sound files of each syllable are the names of the Taiwanese Minnan pronunciation and the "tone" of the syllables in the syllables. The above-mentioned "tones" are replaced by the numbers. The number of the change can be defined by the recorder. It usually represents "Yin Ping", "Yin Shang", "Yin Go", "Yin Yin", "Yang Ping", "Yang Shang", "Yang Go" and Eight tones such as "yang". The database 110 can record the sound files of the respective syllables in the correspondence table 400 as shown in "Fig. 3", that is, if the Taiwanese Minnan pronunciation pinyin data is Taiwanese Roman alphabet, as shown in "3rd picture", Taiwanese Minnan Pinyin with the word "I" is " (The tone is "yellow"), so the file name of the voice file representing the word "I" is "gua2.mp3". The file naming method of the sound file proposed by the present invention is not limited thereto.

The input module 120 is responsible for inputting the target words and phrases belonging to Taiwanese Minnanese, and the target words are composed of a plurality of phrases in the Minnan language. The target phrase can be input by the user by selecting a specific phrase in the file or by the user to input it by itself, but the manner of inputting the target phrase and the present invention is not limited to the above.

The segmentation module 130 is responsible for segmenting the target words input by the input module 120 into at least one set of words.

When the database 110 stores the Taiwanese Minnan language phrase and the Taiwanese Minnan language pinyin data in the phrase table 300, the word segmentation module 130 may start from the first word of the target word, and sequentially align the target word with the phrase table 300. Each phrase has the largest number of words. If the phrase in the phrase table 300 matches the word in the target phrase, the segmentation module 130 will segment the matched words.

For example, when the target phrase is "I am a local person", the sentence segmentation module 130 starts the target word from the first word and all of the phrase table 300. The phrase is compared. It is assumed that the phrase beginning with "I" in the phrase table 300 has only one "I" word, and the word segmentation module 130 can only match the target word with the maximum number of words, and can only match "I", so " I will be divided into a word, and the segmented target phrase will become "毋 is a local." Thereafter, when the segmentation module 130 matches the segmented target phrase "毋 is a local person" with the phrase in the phrase table 300 again, since the phrase table 300 contains the first two words of the segmented target phrase The matching phrase "毋是", assuming that there is a phrase containing "毋" in the phrase table 300, but because the phrase "毋是" matches the target word with two words, the phrase "毋" and the target phrase The number of matching words is only one word, so after the maximum number of words, "毋" will be segmented from the target word. Similarly, "local people" will be segmented from the target word. Therefore, after the segmentation module 130 completes the segmentation of the target phrase "I am a local person", the words "I", "Yes" and "Local" are separated. The manner in which the segmentation module 130 of the present invention divides the target words is not limited thereto.

The reading module 150 is responsible for reading the Pinyin phonetic data corresponding to each word segmented by the word segmentation module 130 in the database 110, and reading the pronunciation of each word according to the read Minnan pinyin data. Sound file.

If the database 110 stores the Taiwanese Minnan language phrase and the Taiwanese Minnan language pinyin data in the phrase table 300, since the phrase table 300 includes the pinyin field 320 for recording the Taiwanese Minnan phonetic alphabet, the reading module 150 is included. After the phrase segmentation module 130 matches the target phrase with the phrase in the phrase table 300 to segment the word, the word segmentation module 130 can be read out directly according to the pinyin field 320 corresponding to the phrase field 310. The Taiwanese Minnan phonetic data corresponding to the segmented words, but the invention is not limited thereto. For other ways, for example, the phrase field 310 and the pinyin field 320 are stored separately, so that the reading module 150 needs to be sentenced. The word segmented by the segmentation module 130 is used as an index, and the corresponding Taiwanese Minnan phonetic alphabet data is read to a position different from the position of the recorded phrase field.

The display module 160 is configured to display the Pinyin phonetic data corresponding to the words segmented by the segment segmentation module 130 according to the order in which the words segmented by the segment segmentation module 130 are arranged in the target word segment, that is, After the target phrase "I am a local person" is divided into three words: "I", "Yes" and "Local", the display module 160 will be based on "I" and "Yes". And the order of the "locals", the arrangement shows " "," "as well as" Three Minnan dialyin materials.

When the display module 160 displays the target word in the display screen 500 as shown in FIG. 4A, the display module 160 can set the display area 510 in the display screen 500 as shown in FIG. 4B. The display area 510 displays the Minnan phonetic data read by the reading module 150. The display area 510 can be disposed in the display screen 500 in a superimposed manner, but the invention is not limited thereto.

The display module 160 can further play the words belonging to the play module 170. In the sound file, in the displayed Minnan phonetic data, the Pinyin phonetic data corresponding to the sound file being played by the playing module 170 is marked. The manner in which the display module 160 marks the Minnan phonetic data includes, but is not limited to, highlighting, bunting, changing the display color, or changing the background color.

The play module 170 is responsible for playing the sound files of the words belonging to the Minnan dialyin data in sequence according to the order of the words segmented by the word segmentation module 130 in the target words.

The playing module 170 further includes a determining unit 171, and the determining unit 171 is responsible for determining whether the sound file played by the playing module 170 is the last one of the sound files to which the words belong, and if the determining unit 171 determines the sound file to be played. When the last one of the sound files belongs to each word, the playing module 170 delays the specific time after the playing of the sound file being played, so that the pronunciation between the words and the words has a time interval. . That is to say, the play module 170 delays a certain amount of time between the words "I" and the word "毋" in the word "毋", thereby separating the two words and playing the word "毋" When there is a sound file, there will be no delay between "毋" and "Yes", so that the user can clearly hear the pronunciation of "毋是".

Next, an operation system and method of the present invention will be described with reference to an embodiment, and reference is made to the flowchart of the method for playing the voice of the Minnan language proposed by the present invention in "5A".

Before the user starts using the present invention, the database 110 in the apparatus for performing the present invention needs to first store the sound files of the syllables in Taiwanese Minnan. (Step 210).

When the user selects the text "I am a local person" in the display screen 500 by using the mouse, the user selects the "sound" button on the display device, and then inputs the mode. The group 120 will input the text "I am a local person" selected by the user into the target phrase (step 220), and the manner of inputting the module 120 is not limited thereto.

After the input module 120 inputs the target phrase (step 220), the word segmentation module 130 divides the target phrase "I am a local person" (the detailed process of segmentation is described above, so the description is not repeated). The target phrase "I am a local" is finally divided into three words "I", "Yes" and "Local" by the word segmentation module 130 (step 230).

After that, the reading module 150 reads "I", "Yes" and "My", "Yes" and "Local" according to the words "I", "Yes" and "Local". The Minnan dialyin data of the three words "local people" are respectively " "," "as well as" (Step 251). Then, the reading module 150 also reads the Minnan phonetic data. "," "as well as" In each of the syllables, the correspondence table 400 searches for the file names of the sound files of the words "I", "Yes" and "Local People" corresponding to the Pinyin data of the Minnan dialect, and reads the sound file according to the file name. (Step 252), that is, the sound files "gua2.mp3", "m7.mp3", "si7.mp3", "pun2.mp3", "te7.mp3" read by the reading module 150, and "lang5.mp3", where "gua2.mp3" is a sound file belonging to the word "I", "m7.mp3" and "si7.mp3" are sound files belonging to the word "毋" and the sound file is "Pun2.mp3","te7.mp3" and "lang5.mp3" are sound files belonging to "local people".

After the reading module 150 reads the Minnan phonetic data corresponding to the segmented word (step 251), the display module 160 sequentially displays the reading mode according to the order of the words in the target word. The Minnan phonetic data read by the group 150 (step 261), that is, the display module 160 displays on the display screen 500. "." The display module 160 may further display the display area 510 in a superimposed manner on the display screen 500 as shown in FIG. 4B, and display the Taiwanese Minnan Pinyin material of the target phrase in the display area. The user can pronounce the voice expressed as the target phrase according to the Pinyin data in Minnan.

After the display module 160 displays the Minnan phonetic data read by the reading module 150 (step 261), the play module 170 also plays the read sequence according to the order of the words in the target words. The sound file to which each word read by the module 150 belongs is "gua2.mp3", "m7.mp3", "si7.mp3", "pun2.mp3", "te7.mp3", The sound file is played in the order of "lang5.mp3", wherein the judging unit 171 judges the play mode when the play module 170 plays three sound files "gua2.mp3", "si7.mp3", and "lang5.mp3". The files played by group 170 are the words "I", "Yes" and the last voice file to which "Local People" belong, so the play mode will be made. After playing the three sound files "gua2.mp3", "si7.mp3" or "lang5.mp3", the group 170 delays for a short time and then plays the sound file of the next word (step 270), that is, the sound file. "m7.mp3" and "pun2.mp3", that is, the sound file to which the two words belong when the playback module 170 plays the sound file ("gua2.mp3" and "m7.mp3", "si7.mp3" There is a gap between "pun2.mp3" and "si7.mp3", "pun2.mp3" and "te7.mp3", "te7.mp3". There will be no gap between "" and "lang5.mp3") so that the user can clearly distinguish the pronunciation of "I", "Yes" and "Local".

In addition, when the play module 170 plays the sound file, the control signal can be transmitted to the display module 160, so that the display module 160 marks the word corresponding to the sound file played by the played module 170 according to the control signal (step 262). For example, when the play module 170 starts playing "gua2.mp3", the control signal is transmitted to the display module 160, and the display module 160 replaces the display of Taiwanese Minnan phonetic data. Color, and when the playback module 170 starts playing "m7.mp3", the display module 160 will display the Taiwanese Minnan Pinyin material. Change the color of the original color and replace the pinyin data of Taiwanese Minnan. The color until the playback module 170 starts playing "pun2.mp3".

In summary, it can be seen that the difference between the present invention and the prior art is that after the target word belonging to the Minnan language is divided into words, the sound file of the word is read according to the Pinyin data corresponding to the word, and is played. Minnan Language When the sound file is archived, the technical means of separating each word is delayed for a short period of time, thereby solving the problem that the prior art has no difficulty in learning to hear the Minnan language, thereby achieving the effect of increasing the user's listening and speaking ability in the Minnan language. .

When reading the Minnan phonetic alphabet data from the reading module 150 to the phrase table 300 (step 251), the "block 5B" may be referred to, and the reading module 150 determines the word segmented by the word segmentation module 130. When the word includes the pronunciation mark (step 2511), the reading module 150 reads the Minnan phonetic data corresponding to the word according to the pronunciation mark when reading the Pinyin phonetic data corresponding to the word (step 2513). ), wherein the pronunciation mark may be composed of a specific symbol (such as "@@", " ^** ", etc., which is not easily used in the sentence), and is not limited thereto.

For example, the reading module 150 needs to read the sound file of the word "heavy" in the word "re-come", and if it contains the pronunciation mark before "heavy" That is, the word segmentation module 130 divides the words into " When the reading module 150 reads the Pinyin phonetic data corresponding to the word "return", it will follow the specific symbol "@@" after the Minnan language pinyin data. "Read Minnan Pinyin data corresponding to the word "re-come"" (Step 2513), and then according to the Minnan language Pinyin data" Read the words " The voice file "ting5.mp3" and "lai5.mp3" to which the "return" belongs (step 252). The method of recording the pronunciation mark is not limited thereto.

If the reading module 150 determines that the word "heavy" does not include the pronunciation mark (step 2511), but reads the single-character "heavy" Yinnan phonetic data from the phrase table 300, the plurality of words are read. "Heavy" corresponds to the Yinnan phonetic data, such as " "," "," "as well as" Then, the reading module 150 determines that the word "heavy" is a broken word (step 2512), and thus the reading module 150 reads the single-word "heavy" Taiwanese phonetic alphabet data preset by the system (step 2515).

If the reading module 150 determines that the wording is not included in the word, the reading module 150 will directly read the Minnan phonetic data corresponding to the word (step 2514).

Furthermore, the method for playing the voice of the Minnan language of the present invention can be implemented in hardware, software or a combination of hardware and software, or can be implemented in a centralized manner in a computer system or distributed in a plurality of interconnected computers with different components. The decentralized way of the system is implemented.

While the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the above description is not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Any changes or modifications in the form and details of the embodiments of the present invention are intended to be within the scope of the invention.
