Abstract
This method of compressing messages, in particular messages intended to be displayed on a telecommunications terminal, in particular a portable telephone, is essentially characterized in that, with said messages being made up of words themselves made up of characters, it includes compiling two encoding tables, namely an “encoding table for compressing words”, causing each compressed word represented by its rank in the table to correspond to a “semi-compressed” word made up of a sequence of compressed characters corresponding to the word, and an “encoding table for compressing characters”, causing each compressed character represented by its rank in the table to correspond to a non-compressed character.
