There having been a formal decision by the LLG board that "Lojban is
Loglan", the correct word for "loglandic" is of course "lojbo".  We can
make a lujvo from dzena-lojbo for the ancestral language culture, to which
one can prefix mal- if one sees fit zo'o.  To refer to the other
organization and its version of the language as distinct from our
predecessors, the most accurate would be "me la TLIn prenu".
