Option 1

Haud wi "munt"

Support --AmaryllisGardener ^talk 12:44, 29 Apryle 2014 (UTC)[replie]
Support- "Moont" seems tae be juist a wey o spellin whit "munt" soonds like, no a wey o writin tae wird. Am A wrang? Bzweebl (tauk) 20:11, 3 Juin 2014 (UTC)[replie]

Option 2

Muive tae "ben"

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

Option 3

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)[replie]

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

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)[replie]
