Right, but that doesn't mean you must always use the actual word {du'u}
explicitly. You might say:

            mi djuno lo cinri le va pixra
            I know something intersting about that picture. 

Because {lo cinri} can be a {du'u}, for example:

            le du'u le pixra cu nanca li vonono cu cinri
            It's interesting that the picture is 400 years old.

If you want to use {djuno}, yes. Other possibility is to use {selsau}:

            i mi selsau le fonjudri be do
            I know your phone number.

            i e'o ko saurgau le do fonjudri mi
            Please make-known your phone number to me.
