How is this pronounced?
I have heard the j pronounced as 'ch' like the 'j'in job
and also as 'h' as in hot.

Hello Carolynn
It does not matter how you pronounce it. The technique and the art ( or the other way
around are the matter!
I can assure you when I make a glaze as simple as Tony Hansen's 20/5 I pronounce
the indigents completely different. Even when I use Laguna claybodies or If I would use
Amaco's kiln.
We call the glaze Mayolica I call it maiolica. My teacher used to call it MA yooo licaa.
The pronouncing is nothing. The artechique is the matter!
Please see

The Chanukah lamps, sorry about the bad quality of the pictures.

Plates and animals.
The children in the pictures are painting RR majolica over paperclay plates. As a result
of not running the kiln program properly the kiln did not shut down when reached to
1220C. It means that RR majolica glaze can fire higher.

This has assuredly been beaten to death in the archives,
but in general, antiques collectors call the Victorian
stuff Ma-jaw-lica or Ma-joe-lica. The Renaissance Italian
stuff (or the Spanish stuff it's derived from) and its
modern descendants are mostly called 'ma-yaw-lica' in
deference to its original language. There's an awful lot
of crossover, though, and you'll find many potters who
refer to the overpainted white-glaze stuff as 'ma-joe-lica'.
(You'll never find an antiques junkie who says 'ma-yaw-lica',
though!)

So I believe in this case my teacher was right!
