Abstract
A character input device is provided with an input key determination unit, an input character processing unit and a conversion candidate processing unit. The input key determination unit determines the type of a key that is input. The input character processing unit executes an operation on an input character and finalization of the input character that is based on the input key. The conversion candidate processing unit executes learning of a conversion candidate associated with the input character. When it is detected that there was input of a delete key before finalization of the input character, the conversion candidate processing unit, as learning of the conversion candidate, sets an input character existing prior to input of the delete key as a reading of the finalized input character.
