Option 2

Muive tae "ben"

1. Support - "munt" hais anither meanin.-MacRusgail (tauk) 15:49, 29 Apryle 2014 (UTC)

   Remember, this is aboot which wird is maist appropriate fer the "muntain" sense. Mony wirds in the Inglis leid hae "anither meanin", but the wird is still uised in the non-offensive sense. --AmaryllisGardener ^talk 23:54, 29 Apryle 2014 (UTC)

Option 3

Muiv tae "moont"

1. Support -- "Moont" shaws the pronoonciation o the equeevalent tae the Ingils "mount" that this uiser is fameeliar wi. John Gordon Reid (tauk) 03:04, 9 Mey 2014 (UTC)
2. Support --AmaryllisGardener ^talk 16:56, 13 Mey 2014 (UTC)

Munt is juist the Scots wey o soondin 'mount' cf. muntain an funtain, it micht hae the antrin parteecular Scots meanin an aw. Ben is anely uised for muntains in Scotland. O coorse ye'll no likely hear onybody uisin munt sicweys acause dialect levellin haes duin awa wi't. Ye'll shuir no hear ben uised for muntains furth o Scotland. — Precedin unsigned comment addit bi 84.135.103.205 (talk)

Agreed, "munt" is the anly wird uised for "mount"s ootside o Scotland. I tak it ye support option 1? Or shall we create a third option? --AmaryllisGardener ^talk 23:54, 29 Apryle 2014 (UTC)

I think mount should be munt. Per AmaryllisGardener. --TDKR Chicago 101 (tauk) 00:34, 8 Mey 2014 (UTC)

Ah disagree wi AmaryllisGardener, we shid conseeder moont aes ae third optie, munt juist luiks lik ae piss-tak. See discussion John Gordon Reid (tauk) 03:04, 9 Mey 2014 (UTC)

• Support - A'm fur "moont" nou.-MacRusgail (tauk) 16:26, 13 Mey 2014 (UTC)
