>When I first heard of it, I pronounced it /lojban/; why not?

English is much more eclectic in that sense. In Spanish
it would have to be spelled "loiban", which is of
course a possibility. There is no reason to retain the
lojbanic spelling, but it is convenient.

/'uniks/ or /'juniks/ is what I've heard in Spanish.
