There are differences in the Mandarin pronunciations standardized on the Mainland and Taiwan. Most of them involve using the fifth tone or not, but there are a few more noticeable exceptions, like 和 hé ㄏㄢˋ (which would correspond to pinyin hàn) and 崖 yá ㄧㄞˊ (which would correspond to pinyin yái).
Stuff like that occasionally trips me up when switching between pinyin and zhuyin.
