Wikipedia definition
1. Zero (linguistics)A zero, in linguistics, is a constituent needed in an analysis but not realized in speech. This implies that there is a lack of an element where a theory would expect one. It is usually written with the symbol "∅", in Unicode U+2205 ∅ empty set . There are several kind of zeros. A zero morph, consisting of no phonetic form, is an allomorph of a morpheme that is otherwise realized in speech.
