In my camera club monochrome means "one colour", a literal translation. There is also the standard art convention that black and white are not colours, they are shades or tones. This, unfortunately, led to the camera club deciding that monochrome allows black and white and one colour. Instead of just getting pure B&W or entirely toned images (and god how I hate sepia) we occasionally get B&W with spot colour. Theoretically an image that was entirely red or yellow would pass too, so I have thought about putting in a close-up of a rose just to make a point.
