Language somewhat lyrical in Gormenghast (5)

I believe the answer is:

lingo

'language' is the definition.
(informal term for language)

'somewhat lyrical in gormenghast' is the wordplay.
'somewhat' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'LINGO' can be found hidden inside 'lyrical in gormenghast'.

(Other definitions for lingo that I've seen before include "Parlance" , "strange language" , "Unfamiliar language or jargon" , "Foreign language or dialect: jargon" , "Language (slang)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
