Home/Taiwanese Mandarin/All pairs/載入 vs 加载
to load into · Different wording
Different wording The two terms share 载 in their simplified forms but are different words. In Taiwan the standard term is 載入; on the Mainland it is 加载 - both point at “to load into”.
Taiwan’s Ministry of Education dictionaries record 載入、加載 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.
