Deutsch: Ein Inselberg ist in der Geomorphologie ein Einzelberg oder eine Berggruppe, die sich inselartig und unvermittelt aus einer Flachform erhebt.
English: A monadnock or inselberg is an isolated rock hill, knob, ridge, or small mountain that rises abruptly from a gently sloping or virtually level surrounding plain. The term "monadnock" is usually used in the United States, whereas "inselberg" is the more common international term. In southern and southern-central Africa, a similar formation of granite is known as a kopje (in fact a Dutch word) from the Afrikaans word: koppie.
Español: Un monte isla es decir un monte residual en una zona llana, esculpido por la erosión diferencial que a el no ha logrado reducirlo por su mayor dureza. Se suele atribuir al sistema morfoclimático subtropical o tropical, seguido de una crisis climática.
