We need a word (Noun, and Adj) to describe
[ present in one language, but missing in another (or others)]

which is a kind of clusivity. (exclusivity ?) (opposite of omnipresent)

if the word is rare.... it could be

Uniquopresent or Uniquostantial

Oligapresent or Oligastantial

Brachy- is "Narrow" ?

In Norwegian, you can refer to pålegg, whereas in English you’d be stuck

might say in a supermarket when you’re so tired you’ve forgotten the
word for cheese.

(lexical-, phrasal-unicorns)

In a figurative sense, a [unicorn] can refer to
something rare, unique, and difficult to find.

Here are some examples of how "unicorn" is used figuratively:

-- "Finding a parking spot downtown during rush hour is like finding a
unicorn."

-- "The company is looking for a marketing professional with a unicorn
skillset: someone who is both creative and analytical."

-- "That antique shop is a treasure trove! I found a unicorn - a first
edition book in mint condition!"
