A portable terminal and a method for transmitting and receiving messages therein are provided to display or transmit 8-bit extended letters by converting 8-bit extended letter codes into 7-bit letter codes in transmitting a short message and converting 7-bit letter codes into 8-bit extended letter codes in receiving a short message. A portable terminal comprises a radio communication part(11) and a control part(15). The radio communication part transmits and receives short messages. In case a short message to be transmitted contains a letter which only exists in an 8-bit extended letter code table, the control part converts the 8-bit extended letter code into a 7-bit letter code, adds letter conversion identifiers to the converted code, and transmits the short message. If a received short message contains a 7-bit letter code having letter conversion identifiers, the control part converts the 7-bit letter code into an 8-bit extended letter code and displays the short message.
