葛萊美獎 vs 格莱美奖

Grammy Award (US music industry award) · Preferred written form

台灣 · Taiwan
葛萊美獎 ㄍㄜˊ ㄌㄞˊ ㄇㄟˇ ㄐㄧㄤˇ · gé lái měi jiǎng

大陆 · Mainland
格莱美奖 gé lái měi jiǎng · ㄍㄜˊ ㄌㄞˊ ㄇㄟˇ ㄐㄧㄤˇ

What differs, and by how much

Preferred written form The two preferred forms differ by a single character. In Taiwan the standard term is 葛萊美獎; on the Mainland it is 格莱美奖 - both point at “Grammy Award (US music industry award)”.

Taiwan’s Ministry of Education dictionaries record 葛萊美獎、格萊美獎 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.
