is ben!

From the Gaelic "beinn", meaning mountain, this word is found throughout Scotland's wild landscapes. It is most famous as part of the name of Scotland's highest mountain, Ben Nevis.

Another definition of "ben" is to go through, as in "come ben the hoose" – meaning come further inside the house, or through to another room.
