ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for aiding adding to a dictionary words which take various forms such as irregular verbs, phrasal expressions, etc. includes: a unit for obtaining the original form of a target word which a user desires to add to the dictionary; a unit for receiving variants of the target word input by the user from a prescribed input region; a manually operable input unit for editing, at a cursor position, a character string displayed on the input region; a unit for displaying the original form on the input region and positioning the cursor at a character location with the highest possibility that the original form and a variant form are different, prior to receiving the variant; and a unit for storing the original form and the variant in association with each other into a user dictionary. A language processing apparatus including such an apparatus for aiding adding to a dictionary is also disclosed. When the user inputs the original form of a word to the apparatus, the original form is displayed on the input region prior to inputting its variant form. The cursor is positioned at the character location of the original form which has the highest possibility of being different from the variant form. Thus the labor of adding various forms of the same word into the dictionary is reduced.
