What is a word [in any language] for “untranslatable word” or “lack of a word”?
I am looking for a single word, in any language, that defines a lexical gap. A single word that means “word that is untranslatable” or “lack of a word.” I know the latin-derived word would be lacuna/lacunae, but does anyone know others?
