fill in blanks
Add absent information
Fill in blanks means to supply missing information where gaps exist.
The phrase comes from exercises or forms with empty spaces awaiting answers: The test asked students to fill in blanks with the correct vocabulary words.
More broadly, it means to provide details someone lacks: I missed the first half—can you fill in the blanks for me?
