“A growing concensus.”
Spelling Entry 1372 / 1605 60-second read
Consensus vs. Concensus
No C in the middle — it is con-SENSUS.
The comparisoni
“A growing consensus — CONSENSUS comes from CONSENT, not CENSUS. The middle is S, not C.”
The ruleii
¶
CONSENT → CONSENSUS.
Easy slip because CENSUS exists and looks plausibly related (they're not). CONSENSUS = "feeling together"; CENSUS = a count. Build the word from CONSENT and the spelling falls out.
Memory aidiii
Remember it like this
Consent leads to consensus.
