Alkanadi:Shouldn't it be pronounced and spelled like this: Jurika
This is very biased as you count only the English pronounciation.
How do we say Eureka in Esperanto then? Is it really spoken like this Eŭreka

Eureka actually means "I have found it".

I am not sure of the advantage of shouting "euxreka" or "Heuxreka", rather than the Esperanto meaning, which is of similar length - "Trovite!"

According to classical Greek pronounciation (well, the one I was taught) it should be something like εὕρηκα /'heu̯rɛːka/ héŭreeka (ee = long open-mid e; note the spiritus asper on the ey) unlike English jurika or German hojreka. Unfortunately Esperanto lacks long vowels and proparoxytona.
So the closest Esperanto transliteration would be heŭreka.
