ABSTRACT:
A method for controlling the reciting time of a language learning device. The language learning device has a recording medium for recording a voice signal thereon, a timer for outputting time information, a motor for transporting the recording medium in the desired direction, and a microcomputer for controlling the entire operation of the language learning device. The microcomputer stops the motor to suspend a reproduction operation until the input of a voice signal recited by the user is completed. If the input of the recited voice signal is completed, the microcomputer drives the motor to resume the reproduction operation. According to the present invention, after a reproduced voice signal from the recording medium is outputted, the reproduction operation is suspended regardless of the length of the reproduced voice signal for a time period during which the user gives a language recitation. Therefore, the user has a sufficient reciting time, resulting in an increase in language learning efficiency.
