I agree that the lujvo would have that place structure. But it works
just the same for Lojban or other language texts. I could say:

        mi ba'usku le mi cmene fo zoi sy Jorge sy
        I phonetically express my name with utterance 
        "Jorge" (a Spanish word).

Whatever you put in x4 will be the same kind of thing that you 
can put in x2.
