Yes, St. Benedict was a monk. He founded an order of monks that became known as the Benedictines.
An Italian Monk created this early code called the Benedictine Rule, and those who followed it were called Benedictine monks.
If you mean, "What is a monk called in the English language?", the answer is indeed "monk". If you mean to ask "What are monks of the Anglican Communion are called?", the answer is the same. They are called monks and mainly follow the rule of Saint Benedict.
Monks generally hold the Benedictine Rule in high regard for its emphasis on community living, prayer, and manual labor. The Mauritian Rule, while less well-known, also focuses on discipline and spiritual growth. Monks adhere to these rules as a way of structuring their lives and deepening their relationship with God.
"Without humility, without the ability to publicly acknowledge your sins and your own human frailty, you cannot attain salvation nor proclaim Christ, nor pretend to be his witness." Every monk knows this and every Christian ought to know it, because without it, there is no salvation. Every monk has up to ten years to make a final decision before he makes solemn, lifelong vows that forever bind him, on this earth, to his monastic rule. Please note that most monks are Benedictines, and St. Benedict also requires all his monks to work. In other words, a monk would willing accept this rule BEFORE he became a monk - or he would not have become a monk. A monk accepts the entire rule, in humility, and sees it as his way to salvation.

Beyond that their duties vary depending on their Order, and their superior.
