Some calling out in a strange language (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lingo

'a strange language' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'some calling out in' is the wordplay.
'some' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue (some of the parts of the word are used).
'LINGO' is hidden in the letters of 'calling out in'.

(Other definitions for lingo that I've seen before include "Jargon, foreign language (informal)" , "Language (informally)" , "Johnny Foreigner speaks one" , "Language, colloquially speaking." , "Patois" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
