Lacunae in terms of scholars: the brief overview JF - Philological Treatises JA - PT VL - 7 IS - 1 SE - Articles DO - UR - https://tractatus.sumdu.edu.ua/index.php/journal/article/view/362 SP - 7-11 AB - <p>The article opens a brief overview on lacunology as a newborn science, which is adherent to<br>sociolinguistics, nonverbal semiotics and applied linguistics (the object of investigation). The<br>research of lacunology considers the empty places of zero verbalization. The investigation is being<br>conducted in the lingo-cognitive approach in terms of language (i), speech (ii), and speech behavior<br>(iii). The paper is aimed at materializing idea of scientific picture of lacunology and its tomorrow‟s<br>vistas. The philosophic triad (to be or not to be, to cognize or not, status of people in cognition) is<br>being solved here positively. There exist white gaps (lacunae) in the world pictures, which with times<br>are cognized and verbalized. Relevant methods are involved. Priority is given to etymological,<br>conceptual, componential, and translation analyses. The choice of methods is determined by the<br>nature of empiric facts and aims to investigate them. The basic metasigns in the lacunicon vicinity<br>make an urgent and actual problem for further investigation.</p> ER -
