Prima ballerina assoluta about to follow movie symbol for text? (9)
I believe the answer is:
pictogram
'prima ballerina' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'assoluta about to follow movie symbol for text?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'about' could be 'c' (abbreviation for 'circa') and 'c' is found within the answer.
'to' is found in the answer.
'symbol' could be 'pi' (pi is a kind of symbol) and 'pi' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'gram' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pictogram that I've seen before include "Drawn symbol representing a word/phrase" , "Graphic representation" .)
