use "lojbau" not "lojban"



It would be preferable when speaking in lojban of lojban to use
"le/lo lojbau/lobybau/lohorbau/lojbangu/lobybangu/lohorbangu/etc."
rather than "la lojban". "la lojban" could be referring to anything
that the speaker chooses to call "lojban", whereas "lojbau" is
unambiguous. I reckon it's probably a mistaken malglico holdover -
in English the 'names' of languages look like proper nouns (even
though they are probably actually common nouns, contrary to
superficial appearances).
