Has anyone else noticed how Lucas pronounces things different than they are in the films?

Such as, NAEboo, GOONgans, Count DOUGHKOO, AlderAAAn, etc. What gives? If that's the way they're SUPPOSED to be said, then why didn't he correct the actors? I happen to think his pronunciation of Dooku allows you to to take the character much more seriously than DOOKOO.

On a similar note, he also refers to lightsabers as laserswords most of the time.
