Home/Taiwanese Mandarin/All pairs/顯示卡 vs 显卡
(computing) graphics card · Different wording
Different wording The two terms share 显卡 in their simplified forms but are different words. In Taiwan the standard term is 顯示卡; on the Mainland it is 显卡 - both point at “(computing) graphics card”.
Taiwan’s Ministry of Education dictionaries record 顯示卡、顯卡 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.
