An information processing device is configured to identify language of character strings in a text. The information processing device includes a processor and a memory storing a program. The processor is configured to or the program, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to: identify a first character, which is used commonly in a plurality of languages, in an input text; infer to which one of the plurality of languages the first character belongs based on a second character used only in one of the plurality of languages in the input text; and infer that the first character belongs to a language that is the one of the plurality of languages to which the second character belongs, based on whether a string of characters immediately preceding or following the first character in the input text contains the second character.
