Standard space to print and write one's name (6)
I believe the answer is:
ensign
'standard' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'space to print and write one's name' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'space' could be 'en' and 'en' is found in the answer.
'and' could be 'n' (common abbreviation for 'and') and 'n' is located in the answer.
'name' could be 'si' and 'si' is found in the answer.
A single letter 'g' remains which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ensign that I've seen before include "Soldier who carries the Colours" , "Ship's colours" , "Small flag or junior naval officer" , "Flag - junior American naval officer" , "Flag; standard-bearer" .)
