Definition
网路 is the Taiwan (Mandarin) term for 'network', equivalent to mainland China's 网络. You'll encounter it in Taiwanese media, tech contexts, and daily conversation in Taiwan. The pronunciation and characters are the same as the mainland term's traditional form, but the usage is region-specific — outside Taiwan, 网络 is the standard form. Be aware that mixing them may cause confusion in cross-strait communication.
