Method for controlling speech-recognition text-generation system and method for controlling mobile terminal

A method for controlling a terminal used in a speech recognition system in which the terminal captures speech, the captured speech is converted into character strings through speech recognition in the terminal or is transmitted to an external device and is converted into character strings through speech recognition in the external device, and the character strings are displayed on a display of the terminal or another display device in accordance with user instruction or automatically, the method comprising:

• determining a presence or an absence of an object in proximity to the terminal;
• and
• specifying a first character string captured by the terminal while it is determined that the object in proximity to the terminal is present, wherein the first character string is one of the character strings into which the captured speech is converted;
• specifying a second character string captured by the terminal while it is determined that the object in proximity to the terminal is not present, wherein the second character string is another one of the character strings into which the captured speech is converted;
• and
• determining a first display form of the first character string and a second display form of the second character string,
• wherein the first display form and the second display form are different from each other.
