Zologia, zologiste, zologial. The double o in Esperanto "zoologio",
"zoologo" has in fact never caused a problem I've been aware of.
Nor (again) has the pronunciation with the g sound.

"Hotel" is international and I don't notice any serious problem with it.

Yugo, yogi, yogurte, yoga. And "yen" for "yen", clearly.

Probably the only thing I can do here is keep repeating comments like
these, and since I don't have the time to do anything else here anyway,
I'm signing off for the time being. Natural orthography wherever possible,
regularity as in Esperanto, and good luck.
