Abstract: An electronic interpreting machine comprising vocal input device for vocal input of a language, dictionary device incorporating an input language dictionary and an output language dictionary, language setting device for setting the input language as the first language and the output language as the second language, voice recognition device for recognizing and storing the first language, translating device for translating the first language which has been recognized into the selected second language, voice information generating device for generating voice information representing the translated second language, and voice output device for giving output of the voice information, wherein the maximum amount of language information which can be vocally input is set beforehand, while information volume computing device that computes the ratio of the amount of information which has been input to the vocal input device to the maximum amount of information which can be input in real time, and computed information not

Abstract: In an electronic translator apparatus, synonymous phrases (title data) and sentences in plural languages are stored in correspondence to each other. These phrases or sentences are read out and translated. This electronic translator apparatus stores the title data as a basic phrase and the explanatory data relating to the title data, thereby allowing a wide range of translation. The title data can be translated into plural languages which are displayed simultaneously. The title data and corresponding sentences are separately stored, thereby increasing the number of sentences that can be translated. The display method is varied depending on the necessity. If the sentence to be translated is long, part of the original sentence during displaying is ommitted and the translated sentence is displayed in whole. When translating into English, an article may be added or a plural form may be expressed so as to translate properly.

Abstract: In a portable dialing unit dial data inputted through a keyboard are registered in an internal memory. When desired dial data is retrieved from the registered dial data and a dial key is pressed, the retrieved dial data is converted to corresponding tone signals and supplied to a speaker. The speaker outputs corresponding tones. A portable automatic dialing unit is acoustically coupled to a mouthpiece of a telephone set. The tones outputted from the speaker are again converted to tone signals by the telephone set, and transmitted to a telephone line. A switchboard is driven by the tone signals. The unit includes two modes: The first mode includes registered target numbers and the second mode includes data for special telephone service. The target number in the first mode can be inserted into any position of the data in the second mode.

Abstract: In an electronic appliance capable of storing secret data to be kept secret and data other than the secret data in distinction from each other, only the secret data can be erased upon a first reset operation and the data other than the secret data can be erased upon a second reset operation.

Abstract: A synthetic-speech calculator includes a calculating circuit inclusive of a plurality of memory locations to allow successive or chain calculations by some calculations equations and calculating numerical data, and voice synthesizer for providing pronunciation of selected calculating information. The calculator further comprises a first circuit for loading the some calculation equations and the calculating numerical data to the selected memory locations, a second circuit for indicating or pronouncing the some calculation equations and the calculating numerical data which have been utilized for the calculation and stored in the memory locations, and a third circuit for repeating the calculation by the some calculation equations and the calculating numerical data all stored in the memory locations.

Abstract: Disclosed is a speech synthesizer integrated circuit as a preferred embodiment of the present invention, which is characterized in that;Using one chip LSI, it implements the fundamental controls for the speech synthesizing operations, for example, and fundamental controls for the key input and display operations (corresponding to the functions usually performed by any of the conventional microprocessors). The preferred embodiment of the present invention has made it possible to realize an extremely useful and versatile speech synthesizer integrated circuit by externally connecting a memory that stores the controlled programs and sound data available for synthesizing the intended speech. By allocating the same addresses to the internal and external memory storage areas, programs can be located at identical memory addresses, thereby increasing system efficiency.

Abstract: A calculator system with visual and speech outputs uses a single monolithic LSI chip which includes: a single ROM containing program instructions for both system and speech control, as well as data for synthesizing speech; a central controller which calculates both inputted data and program execution data to control the system, and a RAM used by the central controller in manipulating data.
