How were monks and missionaries different?

Monks, as they are today, remain in their monastery, they do not travel about, while missionaries are usually priests who are either with an active Order, like the Franciscans or Dominicans. However, monks could be considered missionaries in a sense, in that they often travel to foreign lands to set up a new monastery. However, they are never the first priests in a new land, that would be missionaries proper. Also, a monk is primarily a monk, and only secondarily a priest, not all monks are ordained to be priests. Before Vatican Council II, a monk who was a priest was considered a choir monk and his duties lay primarily in choir and administering the sacraments, while most monks were claustral, they did the manual labor.
