Abstract
A sound reproducing device that displays character information in languages corresponding to a user's wishes without increasing a burden on the user. The user sets an order of priority of the languages in which the character information is displayed when a CD is reproduced. For example, a code “69” (=Japanese) is set as a first priority. Then, when the CD is reproduced, based on the order of priority set in advance, the character information represented by the language with the highest priority among the character information recorded on the CD is displayed on a LCD ( ). By setting the order of priority in advance, there is no longer any need of setting at each reproduction of the CD and the character information is displayed on the LCD ( ) in the languages desired by the user.
