Abstract

The invention provides a language data storage and reproduction apparatus wherein manual application of a tag is unnecessary and, even if key inputting for retrieval is not accurate, object language data can be reproduced. A tag application section automatically applies to each language data inputted from a language data inputting section a tag representative of a distribution position of the language data in the entire language data, and a data recognition section performs data recognition processing of the individual language data to obtain recognition data. A storage section stores the recognition data together with the language data to which the tags are applied with reference to the tags. If a word or a phrase to be retrieved is inputted, a key retrieval section retrieves recognition data coincident with the word or the phrase from within the storage section. When the tag corresponding to the retrieved recognition data is outputted as a retrieval result, a data extraction section extracts the language data designated by the tag from the storage section. A language data reproduction section reproduces the language data extracted by the data extraction section.
