Home/Taiwanese Mandarin/All pairs/欄位 vs 字段
(numeric, data) field · Different everyday word
Different everyday word The two terms share no characters at all. In Taiwan the standard term is 欄位; on the Mainland it is 字段 - both point at “(numeric, data) field”.
Taiwan’s Ministry of Education dictionaries record 欄位、字段 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.
