Abstract

The invention provides a communication apparatus, a communication method and a program storage medium. The communication apparatus includes a word-generating means for recognizing a voice and generating a first word and a second word, which correspond to the voice, a word-collating means for collating the first word generated by the word-generating means with pieces of information on a communication destination stored in advance and outputting a specific piece of information on a communication destination corresponding to the first word, a program-activating means for confirming the fact that the second word generated by the word-generating means is a predetermined word and activating a communication program corresponding to the predetermined word, and a communication-destination-setting means for adopting the specific piece of information on a communication destination output by the word-collating means as information on a communication destination of the communication program activated by the program-activating means. In the communication apparatus, data for identifying a communication partner can be set with ease.
