An electronic device comprises a first memory for storing a plurality of words which are to be displayed on a display coupled to the first memory and a second memory for storing a plurality of voice information codes each corresponding to a portion of a different one of the plurality of words stored in the first memory. The second memory also stores a specific code for distinguishing each of the plurality of voice information codes and stores each of the plurality of voice information codes and the specific code so that the voice information codes and the specific code are alternatively read out. The electronic device also comprises a converter connected to the second memory for converting the plurality of voice information codes stored in the second memory into audible sound, a detector connected to the second memory for detecting a specific code to produce a detecting signal, and an indicator arranged in parallel to the display and connected to the detector for indicating, in response to a detecting signal of the detector, the portion of the word displayed by the display which corresponds to the voice information code converted into an audible sound by the converter.

Electronic instrument for putting out information in the form of voice

An electronic apparatus has a first memory storing therein a plurality of data comprising a first lingual words and a second lingual words corresponding respectively thereto, and a second memory for storing information to freely read out at least one of said plurality of data stored in the first memory. The apparatus further has means for reading out the information stored in the second memory and reading out, on the basis of the information read out, the second lingual word relating thereto from the first memory.

Electronic apparatus for translating one language into another

The electronic instrument includes a memory for storing scheduled time and schedule details, a clock circuit producing time signals, a comparator producing a comparison signal in response to comparison and coincidence of the time signals from the clock circuit with the scheduled time, a discriminating memory with a storage of a signal for decision for and against clear of the scheduled time and details in the memory, and a control unit for discriminating, in response to the comparator producing the comparison signal, the storage of signal in the discriminating memory to control over clear and non-clear of the scheduled time and schedule details in the memory.

Electronic instrument for scheduled data handling

An input device for electronic apparatus includes key signal output lines each having plural key switches connected thereto and circuitry for separating the key signals into specific key signals thereby identifying the plural key switches.

Input device for electronic apparatus

An electronic calculator having a printer detects the key entry by one of arithmetic keys following the numerical key entry and prints one of arithmetic symbols and entered number respectively at the left-hand side and right-hand side of the print sheet.

Electronic calculator with printer

An electronic scheduler includes a comparator for comparing schedule information to be newly stored with schedule information already stored in the memory. Circuitry is provided for determining whether the output of comparison from the comparator falls within a predetermined range, and an alarming circuit for giving an alarm in response to the output present within said range.
