OBS

cannabis; cánnabis; cánabis: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que tanto la acentuación llana, "cannabis", como la esdrújula, "cánnabis", son válidas. [...] En el uso general actual es voz masculina; sin embargo, [...] su empleo con el femenino etimológico, aunque residual, no resulta censurable. [...] la –nn– intermedia debe mantenerse en toda la familia léxica, por lo que no resultan recomendables adaptaciones de uso esporádico como "cánabis".
