Some lingo in an original form? (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

neologism

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'an original form?' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both related to communication as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'some lingo' is the wordplay.
'some lingo' can be anagrammed to 'NEOLOGISM'.
Though, I am not sure how the anagram is indicated.

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for neologism that I've seen before include "New word or phrase" , "Newly coined word" , "Brexit maybe" , "Newly-coined word or expression" , "coinage" .)
