curri; curry: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que la voz "curri" es una adaptación adecuada del extranjerismo "curry", en referencia a un condimento [...] procedente de la India que mezcla diversas especias en polvo, el Diccionario de la lengua española recoge "curri". Se trata del mismo proceso de adaptación de extranjerismos acabados en -y, por el que se sustituye esta letra por -i [...] Si se mantiene el extranjerismo "curry", lo apropiado es resaltarlo con cursiva o, si no es posible, con comillas. 1, record 1, Spanish, - curri
