Eh, well, when spoken sounds can get slurred and softened and whatnot, and as in every language all the speakers don't pronounce things exactly the same. The differences are usually so subtle you can't even describe them, but without them, aside from pitch, how else would you identify somebody's voice?

And while I don't recall the specific instance you're referring to so I wouldn't know if it's relevant in this case, don't forget fansubbers can make typos too. :P
