What differs, and by how much

Different wording The two terms share 圣文森格丁 in their simplified forms but are different words. In Taiwan the standard term is 聖文森及格瑞那丁; on the Mainland it is 圣文森特和格林纳丁斯 - both point at “Saint Vincent and the Grenadines”.

Taiwan’s Ministry of Education dictionaries record 聖文森及格瑞那丁、聖文森特和格林納丁斯 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.
