Abstract

This article examines ideas like "lacunary unit" and "interlanguage lacuna" through theoretical and practical study. The absence of specific linguistic forms in one of the compared languages is what defines an interlanguage lacuna. We have looked at a few types of English interlanguage lacuna units in this article. The study resources can be used in classes covering general English grammar, translation theory, practical translation, and English lexicology. The study of the idiosyncrasies of the transmission of semantics of extra-linguistic units and the detailed examination of concepts like "interlanguage lacuna" indicate the theoretical value of this work.
