Abstract

The author of this article analyses the context of using absolute linguistic lacunas in fragments of the discourse. Absolute lacunas are considered to be lexemes, which do not appear as fixed expressions in Polish-German and German-Polish bilingual dictionaries and have no equivalent in the target language. The analysis of the contexts of absolute linguistic lacunas is based on the analytical categories of Critical Discourse Analysis (KAD) (Jäger, 2004) and the intratextual layer of the multi-layered model of analysis DIMEAN (Warnke, Spitzmüller, 2008; 2011). As a result, the actual meaning of German absolute linguistic lacunas has been reconstructed and the lacunas have been given the status of key words and stigma words.
