VOICE DIALING METHOD FOR MOBILE TELEPHONE TERMINAL

A voice dialing method in a mobile telephone terminal. Upon reception of the dialing utterance, it is determined whether there are one or more pre-registered dialing utterances similar to an input dialing utterance within a first similarity value. If there are more than one dialing utterances within the first similarity value, it is determined whether there is a pre-registered dialing utterance similar to the input dialing utterance within a second similarity value higher than the first similarity value. If there is no dialing utterance within the second similarity value, names represented by the dialing utterances within the first similarity value are displayed. If a user selects one of the displayed names, a registered telephone number corresponding to the selected name is dialed. If there exists one dialing utterance within the second similarity value, a registered telephone number corresponding to the dialing utterance within the second similarity value is dialed.
