saber hacer: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que esta locución puede alternar con experiencia o conocimientos (en plural) como recurso de enriquecimiento léxico si el concepto se repite en una misma noticia o para evitar ambigüedades en contextos en los que saber hacer pueda interpretarse en su acepción de habilidad para desenvolverse con tacto en cualquier situación. En cualquier caso, se aconseja no emplear el anglicismo innecesario know-how, frecuente en los medios de comunicación [...] 1, record 2, Spanish, - saber%20hacer
