ABSTRACT:
An information retrieval system adapted for an electronic dictionary comprises an input device actuated for entering an entry word, a memory adapted for storing a word equivalent to the entry word and the number of a track related to the word a video disk for recording information related to the word and voice data related to the word, the information and the voice data being randomly accessed, and an access circuit responsive to the number of the track specified by the memory for accessing the video disk to access the information from the video disk. The access circuit is operated to automatically provide the voice data when the video disk is operated to provide the new kind of information or, otherwise, to selectively provide the voice data while the video disk is operated to display a particular picture.
