The information gap including the loss and redundancy is the imbalance between the information sending and receiving in verbal communication, which is caused by either the coder or the encoder. It creates both negative and positive effects. In verbal communication, it may produce interface in channel and have a bad result on information sending. However, a good use of the information gap can result in a humorous atmosphere and an enhancement of language and intimacy, which helps to gain the literariness of the works or build the characters.
