Okrand wasn't looking for every synonym for /somebody/ when he wrote that gloss. Since /somebody/ and /someone /are more or less interchangeable, he just included one of them.

I found one canon example showing that Okrand exchanged those words without thinking of the difference: naDev vay' DaSov'a'? Do you know anyone here?
