Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2007062820A1] The invention relates to a method and an apparatus (1) for finding and outputting a data record (20, 20') from a memory (10) containing at least one data record (20, 20') which comprises a designation (22, 22') and at least one entry (24, 24') containing a phonetic description of the designation (22, 22'), wherein a name which designates at least one data record (20, 20') is input in written form. According to the invention, the name which has been input in written form is phonetically transcribed in order to generate a phonetic description of the name which has been input, the phonetic description of the name which has been input is compared with the phonetic description of the designation (22, 22') in the at least one entry (24, 24') of the respective data record (20, 20'), and at least one data record (20, 20') whose at least one entry (24, 24') containing the phonetic description of the designation (22, 22') corresponds to the phonetic description of the name which has been input with a predeterminable degree of probability is determined and output.
