### A good answer might be:

Yes. The second instruction in its translation is a ordinary load instruction which requires a delay of one instruction before the loaded value can be used.

# Store Word (pseudoinstruction)

The `nop` pseudoinstruction translates into `sll $0,$0,0`. This is the "no operation" instruction we have been using all along.

    nop              #  no operation.
                     #  do nothing for one machine cycle.
                     #  (pseudoinstruction)

The `sw` mnemonic is used both by the basic assembler and the extended assembler. As a pseudoinstruction it can store a register to memory in one instruction.

    sw    d,exp      #  Store register $d into the word at address exp.
                     #  exp can be any of several expression types
                     #  that evaluate to an address
                     #  (pseudoinstruction)

Of course, this is implemented as several basic instructions.

Play Pseudocomputer: translate the `sw` instruction into non-extended instructions:

    sw   $t0,someWord   ==    lui  _____,0x1000

                              sw   _____,12( ____ )
