[You are missing a {le} or some other gadri in front of {du'u} and {nu}.]

    la stivn cu djuno le du'u la xorxes cu djuno le du'u da klama le zarci
    Steven knows that Jorge knows that someone goes to the market.

Which is different from:

    la stivn cu djuno le du'u la xorxes cu djuno le du'u makau klama le
zarci
    Steven knows that Jorge knows who it is that goes to the market.

I may know that someone goes there without knowing who.

In English you can't normally use "believe" or "opine" with indirect
questions: *I believe who goes to the market. But there should be
 no such problem in Lojban:

            mi krici le du'u makau klama le zarci
            I have a belief as to who it is that goes to the market.
