Abstract: An information retrieval device comprises a dictionary storage module which stores an entry word, explanatory information that includes an image corresponding to the entry word, and color information on the image so as to correlate the entry word, the explanatory information, and the color information with one another, a color sample display module, a color specify module which specifies an arbitrary color from the color sample displayed, a color retrieval module which retrieves explanatory information stored in the dictionary storage module so as to be correlated with color information corresponding to a color specified, and a retrieved information output module which outputs explanatory information retrieved.

Abstract: A strap comprising a main body portion formed in a belt shape and provided with a first loopback end portion formed by intermediate portion being looped back; and a locking mechanism provided with a first support portion slidably supports one region of the main body portion viewed from the first loopback end portion, and a second support portion supports an end portion provided at an opposite side from the first loopback end portion on an other region, and the locking mechanism being switchable between a free state and a locked state.

Abstract: An information display control apparatus includes an example sentence storage unit that stores a plurality of example sentences, an input unit that accepts a user's operation of inputting a string of characters, an example sentence search unit that, when a compound word consisting of a plurality of constituting words which are combinable and splittable is input via the input unit, searches the example sentences in the example sentence storage unit for an example sentence containing the compound word in a combined state where the plurality of constituting words are combined and an example sentence containing the compound word in a split state where the plurality of constituting words are split, and a display control unit that displays the example sentences searched by the example sentence search unit.
