Some log in with permutation of made up expression (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

neologism

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

'made up expression' is the definition.
(a neologism is a newly coined word)

'some log in with permutation' is the wordplay.
'some log in' anagrams to 'NEOLOGISM'.
But, I am not clear how this is indicated.

'of' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

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

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
