请教一个关于“陕西”的问题

陝：中国陕西省的简称 [short for Shanxi province]。这是我在金山词霸上输入了“陕西”以后查询得出的！可是现在在sohu上看到英语确实这样说的，如下文：
Bus crash kills 26, injures 46 in Shaanxi
Updated:2004-11-28 11:21
A bus turned over Saturday morning, killing 25 people and injuring another 46 on board, in Shaanxi Province, including 13 in serious conditions, according to local sources.
The accident happened at 6:05 a.m. on a highway between Xi’an and Zhouzhi County of the province. The bus, with 49 people on board, turned over and fell down to a river nearby. The bus was owned by Bazhong Transportation Company of neighboring Sichuan Province.
我想知道问中所说的shaanxi和金山词霸中的shanxi是不是一个呢？真的真的疑惑中！
是谁出了问题呢？
