A press reform that is not generally found (6)
I believe the answer is:
sparse
'not generally found' is the definition.
The answer and definition are different parts of speech. However, adjectives and past participle verbs can sometimes mean the same thing.
'a press reform' is the wordplay.
'reform' is an anagram indicator (letters in a new form).
'a'+'press'='apress'
'apress' anagrammed gives 'SPARSE'.
'that is' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sparse that I've seen before include "rarely occurring" , "Rare" , "One's not at all thick" , "Thinly dotted about" , "Not much" .)
