METHOD FOR INPUTTING CHARACTERS AND APPARATUS FOR THE SAME

摘要

A method performed in an apparatus based on touch screen may comprise grouping Korean consonants into at least one consonant-group and Korean vowels into at least one vowel-group and determining a delegate consonant for each of the at least one consonant-group and a delegate vowel for each of the at least one vowel-group; allocating the delegate consonant and the delegate vowel to independent keys in a predetermined order, and displaying the keys; and displaying at least one key corresponding to at least one family consonant belonging to a same group with the delegate consonant to a key selected among the displayed keys. Therefore, all Korean consonants and vowels can be inputted by using a restricted number of keys, and inputted quickly and easily without any learning or training.
