At home, after round, gets news update (8)
I believe the answer is:
bulletin
'news update' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both related to communication as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'at home after round' is the wordplay.
'at home' becomes 'in' ('I'm in' can mean 'I'm at home').
'after' says to put letters next to each other.
'round' becomes 'bullet' (I've seen this in another clue).
'in' put after 'bullet' is 'BULLETIN'.
'gets' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for bulletin that I've seen before include "Broadcast summary of news" , "Blue lint (anag.)" , "Official statement for publication" , "Short official statement of news" , "Short statement on the news as it comes in" .)
