I have just published a brief reflection about the ortographic accent in "sólo" and pronombres demostrativos (aquí).

Let´s start
with a it-does-not-exist-but-should word. INGUSTO. Whenever I tell my students:
"We will have an exam on Friday", they cry all at the same time, as
just one person: "It is unfair!!!". And I answer: scheduling an exam
is not against any law, rule or moral principle (that would be unfair: injusto,
que atenta contra la justicia); it is just against your pleasure ("gusto").
Then, it is not "injusto"; it is just INGUSTO.
Let´s require Real Academia Española to put this
word in the dictionary!www.alfonsoruizdeaguirre.com
