A piece of international trivia: the use of letter „k” in the Polish spelling of the name of the race started out as unofficial, and was changed on wiki purely by chance and approved by silence. Unlike Serbian (which apparently has the habit of transliterating everything for script conversion support) or Russian (which uses another script completely) the spelling could remain unaffected and the word considered a loanword with foreign spelling.

It seems however that Egmont adopted it as well in their translations, making the spelling official. I don't know when it started, but I did spot it in the newest Journal of Two Sisters.
