A mobile communication terminal comprises the followings: a keypad(20) which has key buttons; and a control unit(10) which determines a character arrangement order corresponding to operated key buttons and recognizes corresponding character data according to an arrangement order of key buttons operated next time. The mobile communication terminal additionally includes a memory(40) which stores the character arrangement order for at least one or more characters corresponding to plural key buttons or the arrangement order of the key button.
