Abstract
A character input device includes a character input unit that receives an input character, a suggestion list management unit that converts the input character, a suggestion list generator that generates a conversion suggestion list through conversion of the input character, a suggestion display including a standard-suggestion display area for displaying the conversion suggestion list, an operation detector that detects movement of a divisional suggestion included in the conversion suggestion list, and a suggestion division management unit that generates a divisional-suggestion display area different from the standard-suggestion display area in the suggestion display in response to the movement of the divisional suggestion. The suggestion division management unit associates the divisional suggestion with the divisional-suggestion display area, and outputs the divisional suggestion to the divisional-suggestion display area.
