Abstract
The invention relates to an input system for at least location and/or street names, including an input device, a data source arrangement which contains at least one list of locations and/or streets, and a control device which is arranged to search location or street names, entered via the input device, in a list of locations or streets in the data source arrangement. In order to simplify the input of location and/or street names, the data source arrangement contains not only a first list of locations and/or streets with alphabetically sorted location and/or street names, but also a second list of locations and/or streets with location and/or street names sorted on the basis of a frequency criterion. A speech input system of the input device conducts input in the form of speech to the control device. The control device is arranged to perform a sequential search for a location or street name, entered in the form of speech, as from the beginning of the second list of locations and/or streets.
