Yes, yes. Romance langs have two or three strata (layers) in their
vocabulary: 1) derived directly from VL and thus subject to all phonetic
changes; 2) early Latinisms that experienced mutations in limited waydepending on the time of borrowing; 3) later "bookish" Latinisms, thatcould, btw, substitute already existing "vulgar" words, e.g. It._gloria_ < L. =, while Old It. > _groglia_ or _grora_.

Don't forget 4) words borrowed from other Romance languages, like Sp._paï¿œs_ "country" (= Fr. _pays_).
