    摘要: A navigation apparatus acquires, through an antenna and a receiver, external information such as traffic information or the like, and a control unit in the navigation apparatus acquires validity time information from the external information. If the validity time information includes a standard time that represents a current time, the standard time together with a relative time or period information in the validity time information is used for determining whether a valid period has passed. If the validity time information does not include the standard time representing the current time, the lapse of the valid period is determined based on the standard time generated by a standard time generator and one of the relative time and the period information in the validity time information. Then, the external information is invalidated by deleting the information from an information storage if it is determined that the valid period has passed.

    摘要: In a navigation system, a switching use dictionary is provided as storing an aggregation of switching commands, which are also stored in the individual language-specific dictionaries including the language 1 dictionary, language 2 dictionary, . . . , and language n dictionary. It is determined whether a switching command included in the switching use dictionary is matched with an inputted speech. When a certain switching command is determined to be matched with the inputted speech, a certain language-specific dictionary corresponding to the certain switching command is substituted for a default active language-specific dictionary. Thus, the certain language-specific dictionary is newly selected as an active language-specific dictionary used for operating the navigation system by a speech input.
