CONCEPTUAL AND LINGUISTIC LACUNA
The purpose of the presented article is to consider the problem of Lacuna and demonstrate the specifics of its division into conceptual and linguistic lacuna. The article discusses the theoretical nature of the lacuna problem and the history of its study; explains the reasons for the appearance of Lacuna and clarifies the classification into species. As a result of the study, infinite and conditional lacuna types of Lacuna are analyzed by a descriptive, comparative method with examples, and ethno words in the Kazakh language are described in what cases they are lacuna for other languages. The reasons for naming the types of lacuna as conceptual lacuna and linguistic lacuna are substantiated. The concept of Lacuna is the unnecessary presence in the life landscape of another nation of the concept, which is concentrated in the consciousness of one nation from the need associated with the landscape of life. It is concluded that the conceptual lacuna is not due to the limitations of the knowledge of the nation, but only to the lack of a landscape of life that forms, concentrates that concept. It is explained that there is no semantic connection between the concept and the lacuna, that the two arise only out of necessity and serve to discover each other as a linguistic unit.
