How can you directly import an English name?

I want to say 'I play EUIV (Europa Universalis IV)', and I have {.i mi samyzilkeikei ...}, but I don't know how to deal with the last part. How would you do that?

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

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