Jean-Baptiste-Joseph Fourier (French mathematician, 1768-1830) · Preferred written form
Preferred written form The two preferred forms differ by a single character. In Taiwan the standard term is 傅立葉; on the Mainland it is 傅里叶 - both point at “Jean-Baptiste-Joseph Fourier (French mathematician, 1768-1830)”.
Taiwan’s Ministry of Education dictionaries record 傅立葉、傅裏葉 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: the OpenCC cross-strait conversion table, which maps each Mainland term to the form used in Taiwan.
