ABSTRACT:
By inputting an input text in voice or phonogram and also the source information which is a source of the input text, extracting candidate words composing the input text by analyzing the source information, and using the candidate words, ambiguity in converting the voice or phonogram to characters is eliminated and highly accurate conversion is realized. For example, highly reliable translation is effected by extracting candidate words comprising the translation text using a bilingual dictionary containing words in the source language, translations in the target language, and extracting associated words in the target language which correspond to each other. When ambiguity occurs in converting the voice or phonogram input of the translation text to characters, by selecting the above candidate words preferentially, a voice typewriter for translation or a word processor for translation for converting the inputted translation text to characters a highly accurate translation is realized.
