Soldier on grid gets some text (9)
I believe the answer is:
paragraph
'some text' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'soldier on grid' is the wordplay.
'soldier' becomes 'para' (short for paratrooper).
'on grid' becomes 'graph' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'para'+'graph'='PARAGRAPH'
'gets' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for paragraph that I've seen before include "section of text" , "A group of connected sentences" , "Division of a text" , "Chunk of text" , "It's indicated with a new line and indentation, perhaps" .)
