Heavenly round these parts and others (8)
I believe the answer is:
ethereal
'heavenly' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)
'round these parts and others' is the wordplay.
'round' becomes 'here' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'these parts' means one lot of letters goes inside another (in the sense of cuts or separates).
'and others' becomes 'etal' (short for 'et alia', 'and others' in Latin).
'here' inserted within 'etal' is 'ETHEREAL'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ethereal that I've seen before include "Having great lightness and delicacy" , "Airy, celestial" , "Insubstantial or heavenly" , "Airy or supernatural" , "Exquisite - as light as air" .)
