MONSIER: Abbreviated M. (the forms Mons., Monsr., often occurring in Eng. writings, are not now current in France). See also the plural messieurs. https://www.oed.com/oed2/00150777

Another odd Translingual entry, but this time not taxonomic, but planetological. Mountains on other planets do tend to be named in Latin, but I don't see how that justifies the existence of a Translingual entry. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 23:28, 23 November 2018 (UTC)
- You may recall that MW3 had a label "ISV", for International Scientific Vocabulary, which they used for many mathematical, scientific, and technical terms.
- For us Translingual would seem a natural home for many scientific terms that are used in multiple languages. I see no validity to a claim that scientists aren't capable of combining words and morphological elements into terms that are intended to be understood by international communities of specialists.
- Further I see no reason to make it difficult for someone in a specialist community to find common morphological elements by dispersing them into multiple languages and even multiple scripts.

- Keep, maybe move to WT:RFVN. In Latin it's Latin mons (no capital); if Translingual Mons (capital) is really a thing, a common noun, then it's obviously different. --幽霊四 (talk) 01:03, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
