Abstract

The article is concerned with the phenomenon of lacunarity and methods of translating lexical lacunas from English into Ukrainian. The scientific research attempts to reveal the main reasons for the appearance of lexical lacunas in interlingual communication. The authors conclude that the main methods of discarding lacunas in the target texts are the compensation method and the method of filling the gap. Advantages and disadvantages of both methods are described in this paper.
