Additional Notes:
Chinese (traditional) ..... 遵從教團紀律的宗教兄弟會/修士會成員;修道士通常發誓要貧簡度日、獨身禁慾,以及順服。宗教職責與沉思冥想是傳統的重要責任。修道士通常離開社區住在公共的男子修道院,但隱士與隱遁者等人卻獨自居住。修道士與化緣修士不同之處在於,對修道士而言,除非有特殊情況,否則僅有退休與隱居才能不受男子修道院的干預。重要的基督教修道士教派包含了聖本篤修會(Benedictines)、克魯尼亞克會(Cluniacs)、西妥會僧侶團(Cistercians)、(天主教西多會中的一派)特拉普會(Trappists)、卡爾特教團(Carthusians)、普利孟特瑞會(Premonstratensians),以及卡瑪多利斯會(Camaldolese)。 
Dutch ..... Leden van een religieuze broederorde die leven volgens een discipline die door hun orde wordt voorgeschreven. Monniken leggen vaak een eed van armoede, kuisheid en gehoorzaamheid af. Het uitvoeren van religieuze plichten en bezinning zijn traditionele prioriteiten. Monniken leven gewoonlijk in afzondering van de maatschappij samen in kloosters, maar enkelen leven alleen (kluizenaars of heremieten). 
German ..... Mitglied einer religiösen Bruderschaft, das sich einer durch seinen Orden vorgeschriebenen Selbstdisziplin widmet. Ein Mönch legt in der Regel Gelöbnisse auf Armut, Keuschheit und Gehorsam ab. Die Durchführung religiöser Pflichten und Kontemplation stehen traditionell an erster Stelle. Ein Mönch lebt gemeinschaftlich in Klöstern, die üblicherweise von der Gesellschaft abgesondert sind, manche (Eremiten oder Anchoriten) leben aber auch allein. Ein Mönch unterscheidet sich von einem "Bettelmönch" dadurch, dass er, ausgenommen in besonderen Umständen, ungestört von einem öffentlichen Predigtamt in seiner Zurückgezogenheit und Einsamkeit ist. Einige der bekannteren christlichen Mönchsorden schließen die Benediktiner, Clunizianer, Zisterzienser, Trappisten, Karthäuser, der Prämonstratenser und Kamaldulenser ein. 
Spanish ..... Miembros de una hermandad religiosa devotos a una disciplina preescrita por su orden. Los monjes generalmente toman votos de pobreza, castidad y obediencia. La actividad de labores y contemplación son de prioridad tradicional. Típicamente, los monjes viven fuera de la sociedad en monasterios comunales, pero algunos viven solos (eremitas o anacoretas).
