That's how most were derived.  The remaining gismu fall into several categories: uniquely Lojban concepts (e.g., "gismu"), metric prefixes ("decti", "kilto"), basic metric and math units ("xampo", "tanjo"), the six Lojban source languages ("jungo", "glico"), some other languages and geographical or cultural gismu ("bengo", "merko"), and the religion gismu.
