Although the residents of both sides speak Chinese, there are still numbers of differences in dietetic words. Because dietetic words are closely related to everyone’s daily life, the differences of both sides may have a negative impact on interaction between the dwellers of both sides across the Taiwan strait.This paper collects dietetic words of both sides and compares them in five aspects.

The reasons of the formation of vocabulary differences on both sides are even more complicated. Generally speaking, the reasons can be included on two aspects that are internal and external causes of Chinese. With the deepening communication between both sides, a certain degree of mutual influence emerges in the process of using Chinese on both sides across the Taiwan Strait.
