The cellular phone is provided with a storing unit including: a first storing unit for storing special character data, which includes at least one of pictogram data representing an expression and emotion character data representing an emotion in a form of a character; a second storing unit for storing expression image data, which richly represents expressions and/or emotions corresponding to the special character data in a form of an image; and a third storing unit for previously storing a correspondence relation between each piece of the special character data and each piece of the expression image data. Special character data contained in a received email is compared with special character data stored in the first storing unit. Matched special character data is compared with the expression image data stored in the second storing unit. Further matched special character data is read from the third storing unit. The expression image data is displayed on a display.
