That looks like Latin, not English, to me. If the "IV" is a Roman numeral, =
I'd=20
translate it as "von". For the rest, I'd say "la .evropas.universalis." or =
"la=20
.evropam.universalem.". "eu" is not a diphthong in Lojban, so we have to do=
=20
something with it. "Euskal Herria" I rendered as ".auskalerik." ('k' appear=
s=20
in several Basque endings).

What do you mean by "play"? It can be translated as "kelci", "tigni", or=20
"javni" for different senses.
