The invention relates to digital devices, employing a reduced keyboard for text entering. The technical effect of the invention is solving ambiguity of depressed key sequence by using disambiguation system at character level, minimizing a number of entered keystrokes, raising efficiency of inputting both broadly used and special characters of various languages and enabling a user to enter texts by using a touch typing system. Characters 5 of the alphabet are divided into groups 21, 22, 23, depending on its frequency of occurrence in the actual texts. Any character 5 of group 21, comprising "high-frequency" character, is entered by one key-press. As for characters of other groups 22, 23, it is required to select a relevant group 22 or 23, first, and then select a character 5 of same group. Depending on a number of characters in the alphabet and keys on the reduced keyboard, the character groups are split to multiple subgroups 24 (comprising 2-3 characters each). The images of characters 5 of groups 21, 22, 23 are displayed on the screen 3 adequately to topology of key layout of the reduced keyboard 1, allocated to said characters 5. When switching over to group 21, 22, 23, the images of characters 5 are simultaneously modified. The arrangement of characters 5 of the selected language on keys of the reduced keyboard 1 within each group 21, 22, 23 is carried out based on the technology of utmost layout matching to topology of the conventionally adopted layouts of the complete computer keyboard employed for the relevant language. The matrix 20 is designed to arrange the selected language characters, referred to one group (subgroup), on the fields of group 21, 22, 23 (subgroup 24 ) congruently to topology, their geometrical location on the complete computer physical keyboard, for example, PC keyboard. The matrix 20 may have an alternative embodiment, for example, with reference to fig. 10, which displays both mathematical 27, and letter 5 characters of a randomly selected language. The drawing on fig. 1 is attached to accompany the abstract. |
