confort: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que la grafía "confort", término incorporado al léxico español a través del francés, se escribe con ene y no es recomendable la escritura con m, propia del inglés ("comfort"). Tal y como explica el Diccionario panhispánico de dudas, es una palabra aguda ("confort", no "cónfort") y se escribe sin tilde por acabar en más de una consonante. [...] Por último, se recuerda que, aunque su uso no es censurable, puede alternar con equivalentes como "bienestar" o "comodidad". 4, record 1, Spanish, - confort%20clim%C3%A1tico
