In French, Mont means mountain.
For example; ''When I went skiing at Courmayer in Italy, I could see Mont Blanc ( the white mountain ) everyday''. And for the sake of trivia it's Monte Bianco in Italian. The Mountain borders France and Italy.
The other day I went window shopping in Ebisu for a new rucksack and came across this sign which said Mont-Bell is ''close''!!
I took a step back to look around for the mountain but couldn't see it!! Maybe it was ''close'' but it was dwarfed by all the tall buildings.
I couldn't do my window shopping at this particular shop because it was ''closed''.
Talk about WONKY!! I was ''close'' to confusion!!
