A character input apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the character string dictionary, the candidate character string extracting portion, the display means, and the display control means are provided in an information equipment body for displaying and processing communication information, the operation input unit is provided in a remote control device separated from the information equipment body, for remotely controlling the information equipment body, a position specifying signal generated by an operation of the position specifying member in the operation input unit and the selection instructing signal generated by an operation in the operation input unit are transmitted from a transmitting portion of the remote control device to the information equipment body, a position is specified on the display screen of the display means provided in the information equipment body, based on the transmitted position specifying signal, and the candidate character strings are selected by the selecting means, based on the transmitted selection specifying signal. 3. A character input apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the display means includes, on the display screen, a selection character string display region for displaying the selected character string and a candidate character string display region for listing a predetermined number of candidate character strings from which the character string is selected, the selecting means selects a predetermined character string from a plurality of the candidate character strings listed in the candidate character string display region, based on the selection instructing signal generated by an operation in the operation input unit, the display control means controls the display means in such a manner that the candidate character strings extracted from the candidate character string extracting portion are listed in the candidate character string display region on the display screen and the character string selected by the selecting means is displayed in the selection character string display region on the display screen, the position specifying member in the operation input unit specifies a position on a two-dimensional coordinate corresponding to the candidate character string display region on the display screen, and the display control means controls the display means in such a manner that, in the candidate character string display region on the display screen, the listed candidate character strings are shifted so as to spread to upper and lower sides with respect to the position specified by the position specifying member, when the number of the candidate character strings is increased with a decrease in the extraction threshold value, and in the candidate character string displ ay region on the display screen, the listed candidate character strings are shifted from both sides of the position specified by the position specifying member to the specified position, when the number of candidate character strings is decreased with an increase in the extraction threshold value. 4. A character input apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the candidate character string extracting portion compares an extraction priority of each character string in the character string dictionary with the extraction threshold value, and repeats first processing of extracting character strings whose extraction priorities are larger than the extraction threshold value from the character string dictionary and second processing of changing the extraction threshold value based on the threshold value change instructing signal generated by an operation in the operation input unit. 5. A character input apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the selecting means selects a predetermined candidate character string from a plurality of candidate character strings listed on the display screen whose extraction priorities are larger than the set extraction threshold value, based on the selection instructing signal generated by an operation in the operation input unit. 6. A character input apparatus of claim 1, wherein a language of the character strings to be input is Japanese or Chinese, a plurality of character strings are stored in an order based on a pronunciation thereof in the character string dictionary, and homonymous character strings are stored in an order based on the number of strokes of a first Chinese or Japanese character included in each of the character strings. 7. A character input apparatus, comprising: a character string dictionary which stores a number of character strings each including at least one character and having a predetermined meaning, in a predetermined storage order; and an operation input unit which generates various instructing signals in accordance with an operation of an operator, the apparatus selecting a character string from the character string dictionary based on the instructing signal and inputting the character string, the apparatus comprising: display means having a display screen for displaying the selected character string and listing candidate character strings from which the character string is selected; the character string dictionary being constituted to store each character string at least together with speech information based on the grammar of a language of the character strings to be input, and a grammar dictionary which stores grammar information including a conjunction relationship between character strings disposed adjacent to each other, determined by the part of speech of the character strings in language of the character strings to be input, and wherein the candidate character string extracting portion, regarding a latest character string among the character strings selected by the selecting means, extracts character strings, which may come next to the latest selected character string, as candidate character strings from the character string dictionary, based on the read part of speech information and the grammar information stored in the grammar dictionary. 8. A character input apparatus according to any of claim 1 or claim 7, wherein the candidate character string extracting portion includes appearance frequency updating means for updating an appearance frequency of each character string in the character string dictionary, based on a selection determining signal from the selecting means, and preferentially extracts character strings having large appearance frequencies as candidate character strings from the character string dictionary, considering that larger appearance frequencies correspond to higher extraction priorities. 9. A character input apparatus according to any of claim 1 or claim 7, wherein the character string dictionary and the candidate character string ext
