ABSTRACT:
A word converting apparatus displays converted results and cooccurrent examples in a candidate selection menu for allowing the user to easily and definitely select converted results of words in a cooccurrent relationship. A cooccurrence recognizer 15 recognizes a cooccurrent relationship between words using a cooccurrence dictionary 13. A converter 16 refers to a general dictionary 12 and the cooccurrence dictionary 13 to store a converted result corresponding to a word in a result storage unit 17. If a converted result is derived from the general dictionary 12, a candidate storage unit 18 stores the converted result. If a converted result is derived from the cooccurrence dictionary 13, the candidate storage unit 18 searches the cooccurrence dictionary 13 for a cooccurrent example and stores the cooccurrent example. When candidate selection is indicated, a candidate selector 19 displays converted results and cooccurrent examples stored in the candidate storage unit 18, in a candidate selection menu on a display unit 20. When a candidate alternative is selected from the candidate selection menu, the candidate selector 19 instructs the converter 16 to give highest priority to a selected converted result or a converted result corresponding to a selected cooccurrent example, and the converter 16 changes a converted result in the result storage unit 17.
