a
A cardinal-preserving forcing over M leaves every ground-model cardinal number a cardinal in every generic extension. In the present notation, for every M-generic filter G and every ordinal κ∈M,
M⊨“κ is a cardinal”⟹M[G]⊨“κ is a cardinal”.​
(1)
Set forcing preserves ordinals, and an old bijection witnessing that an ordinal is not a cardinal remains available. Thus this condition also means that the two models have exactly the same cardinals. Cardinality here is computed inside the respective models, not from their external sizes.
