| Dutch ..... Betrekkelijk kleine, vlakke of bijna vlakke, meestal geïsoleerde stukken land die duidelijk uitsteken boven het omringende land en zich kenmerken door steile erosiewanden rondom; kleiner dan plateaus, maar groter dan tafelbergen. |
| German ..... Relativ kleine, in der Regel isolierte Landformation mit einer flachen oder fast flachen Spitze, die sich deutlich von der Umgebungslandschaft abhebt und an allen Seiten steile Erosionsabhänge zeigt; kleiner als eine Hochebene und größer als ein Härtling. |
| Spanish ..... Macizo terrestre relativamente pequeño, por lo general aislado, con una cumbre plana o casi plana, que se yergue diferenciándose sobre el paisaje circundante, y que tiene laderas escarpadas por la erosión en todos sus lados; es más pequeño que las mesetas y más grande que los cerros testigos. |
