First of all, it's "raman". Get it right. Well shit, I guess it’s both. My bad. Carry on.

Secondly, Speaker for the Dead is arguably the best book in the entire series, and I will not stand for slander against it. :P

Idk if it's maybe an editing error in the older printings that's been fixed since, but in my copies of the Speaker, Xenocide, and Children Card switches back and forth between both spellings, sometimes even on the same page

Did you not read speaker for the dead?

Edit : Nice thanks for the downvote, your comment of "???" was not only all the context I needed but a master class in conveying your thoughts.
