ABSTRACT:
An electronic mail terminal includes a display section, a conversion dictionary which stores sets of a character string and a pictograph, a receiving section and a control section. The conversion dictionary stores sets of a character string and a pictograph. The receiving section receives an electric mail including a sentence as a conversion object sentence in a reception mode. The control section automatically refers to the character string-pictograph conversion dictionary based on each of character strings of the conversion object sentence in the reception mode to retrieve a specific pictograph corresponding to the character string, when the pictograph corresponding to the character string is registered in the character string-pictograph conversion dictionary. Then, the control section converts the character string into the specific pictograph to produce a pictograph mixed sentence, and controls the display section to display the pictograph mixed sentence.
