Home/Taiwanese Mandarin/All pairs/佛羅倫斯 vs 佛罗伦萨
Florence, Italy · Preferred written form
Preferred written form The two preferred forms differ by a single character. In Taiwan the standard term is 佛羅倫斯; on the Mainland it is 佛罗伦萨 - both point at “Florence, Italy”.
Taiwan’s Ministry of Education dictionaries record 佛羅倫斯、佛羅倫薩 for this concept. The Mainland standard is among them - the difference is which form each side makes the default.
Neither term carries an HSK or TOCFL level in this table - this pair is dictionary-recorded, not syllabus-derived.
Pair source: CC-CEDICT, which tags the Taiwan form as Taiwan usage.
