Think about it: Actor Kelsey Grammer isn't a Klingonist and wouldn't
understand official spelling, so Okrand provided a phonetic transcription
instead which the writers copied into the script. The closed captions were
probably taken directly from the script. (TV production companies often
provide captioners with copies of their scripts, which makes the captioning
process faster, cheaper and more efficient.)
