Dáesh; Daish: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que "Dáesh" y "Daish" son formas sugeridas en los foros internacionales [para evitar llamar a este grupo de "estado" ya que no se lo reconoce como tal]. "Daish" es la que se ajusta mejor a la pronunciación y al desarrollo original, pues la "i" correspondería a Irak, aunque también se ha propuesto la grafía con "e", "Daesh", que conviene adaptar al español como "Dáesh". 1, record 1, Spanish, - D%C3%A1esh
