You could do that, but it would be a non-compositional lujvo. You
cannot explain the meaning of that "gauju'o" in terms of "djuno", you
have to rely on the English gloss. It does not mean "ko'a djuno lo
du'u ko'a gasnu ko'e" or anything like that.

I wouldn't be trying to explain gauju'o in terms of djuno. I would explain it in terms of gasnu.
