What differs, and by how much

Preferred written form The two preferred forms differ by a single character. In Taiwan the standard term is 羅浮宮; on the Mainland it is 卢浮宫 - both point at “the Louvre, museum in Paris”.

Taiwan’s Ministry of Education dictionaries record 羅浮宮、盧浮宮 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.
