Home/Taiwanese Mandarin/All pairs/還原乳 vs 复原乳
reconstituted milk · Preferred written form
Preferred written form The two preferred forms differ by a single character. In Taiwan the standard term is 還原乳; on the Mainland it is 复原乳 - both point at “reconstituted milk”.
Taiwan’s Ministry of Education dictionaries record 還原乳、復原乳 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.
