Patent Document ID: 8107731
Application ID: 12155731

Base Claim:
1. A text conversion apparatus wherein a text is entered which includes at least one letter associated with a character to be transmitted, and one candidate matching the text entered is selected among a plurality of candidates of output texts to which the text entered is to be at least partially converted, the one candidate being output from an output circuit as an output text including the character to be transmitted, said apparatus comprising: an information input circuit for entering a letter indicating a destination of transmission as information on the destination of transmission; a text converter for converting the text entered to an output text matched to the text entered; a word-finder with learning function for storing an input text and the output text in association with either of the information on the destination of transmission and an attribute of the information on the destination of transmission; and a text learning circuit for controlling a change in storage caused by correlating the input text relevant to the text entered with either of the information on the destination of transmission and the attribute of the information on the destination of transmission stored and coincident with either of the information on the destination of transmission and the attribute of the information on the destination of transmission entered to thereby generate a candidate of conversion of the text entered; said text converter taking out an output text which is matched to the input text stored in correlation with either of the information on the destination of transmission and the attribute of the information on the destination of transmission stored and coincident with either of the information on the destination of transmission and the attribute of the information on the destination of transmission entered.

Claim 2:
2. The apparatus in accordance with claim 1 , further comprising: an information memory for storing the information on the destination of transmission along with a predetermined condition for allowance; and an information decider for determining the input information on the destination of transmission as valid information only subject to the condition for allowance being satisfied; said word-finder with learning function storing the input text and the output text only in correlation with either of the valid information on the destination of transmission and the attribute of the valid information on the destination of transmission; said text converter taking out, as a candidate for conversion of the text entered, only at least one output text stored correlated with the input text relevant to the text entered and with either of the valid information on the destination of transmission and the attribute of the information on the destination of transmission stored and coincident with either of the input valid information on the destination of transmission and the attribute of the information on the destination of transmission entered.
