cuórum; quorum: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que "cuórum" [...] no es sinónimo de "consenso" [...] Entre otros sentidos más o menos próximos, el "cuórum" (o "quorum") alude a la cantidad indispensable de personas para que los órganos que deliberan puedan llegar a acuerdos, como recoge el Diccionario panhispánico del español jurídico. Por lo tanto, no es adecuado emplear este sustantivo cuando se quiere hablar de que varias personas (o la sociedad en general) tienen la misma opinión sobre algo, lo que no involucra a ningún cuerpo deliberante. 2, record 2, Spanish, - cu%C3%B3rum

cuórum; quorum; quórum: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que la forma "cuórum" (plural "cuórums") es la adaptación adecuada al español del latinismo "quorum", y no "quórum". [...] Tampoco son adecuadas las formas "quórun" y "cuórun" (terminadas en ene y con tilde), pues no se corresponden con la pronunciación en la lengua culta y al ser palabras llanas terminadas en n no llevarían tilde. 2, record 2, Spanish, - cu%C3%B3rum
