Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
mascarilla: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que las palabras que sirven para especificar el tipo de "mascarilla" se escriben con minúscula al no ser nombres propios (higiénica, quirúrgica, textil, filtrante, etc.). Sin embargo, algunos nombres son siglas, como es el caso de las FFP —del inglés "filtering face piece"—, y en ellos lo adecuado es respetar las mayúsculas. Cuando estas denominaciones de "mascarillas" añaden a la sigla un número —que indica el grado de protección—, lo correcto es escribirlo unido. 8, record 1, Spanish, - mascarilla
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 OBS
La forma "cubreboca" es un compuesto válido —de cubrir y boca— usado en algunas zonas en referencia a una "mascarilla sanitaria" (que también recibe, según el lugar, nombres como "tapaboca" o "tapabocas", "barbijo" o "nasobuco"). Es también válida la variante "cubrebocas". 5, record 1, Spanish, - mascarilla

This system of working is called "paddocking." 3, record 3, English, - paddock
