What's the difference between Taifun / Hurrikan / Zyklon / Orkan
Usually refers to a very strong tropical cyclone, especially in the Atlantic and eastern Pacific; close to “typhoon,” but region-specific.
A general scientific term for a tropical cyclone; more technical and often used as an umbrella term, not just for Asian storms.
In German, this usually means extremely strong storm-force wind, not necessarily a tropical cyclone; so it only partly matches “typhoon.”
