campamento; campin; camping; cámping: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que "campin" y "campamento" son alternativas al anglicismo "camping". […] El plural de "campin" es "cámpines" […] Asimismo, se recuerda que la forma "cámping", con tilde y terminada en ge, es un híbrido inadecuado, pues no responde ni a la voz inglesa ni a la ortografía española. […] Finalmente, si se utiliza la forma inglesa "camping", que es la recogida en la vigesimotercera edición del diccionario académico, lo adecuado es escribirla en cursiva o entrecomillada cuando no se dispone de este tipo de letra. 3, record 1, Spanish, - campamento
