Not according to the gismu list.

I don't understand {sutra loi gusni}, the x2 of sutra seems to
ask for an event.

"I think about the fact that something travels faster than light"
I would translate as {mi pensi le du'u da zmadu lo'e gusni le ka
sutra le nu klama}, assuming {klama} is the right word for what
light does.
