Text sample in margins suffering more hesitation (5,5)
I believe the answer is:
lorem ipsum
'text sample' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'in margins suffering more hesitation' is the wordplay.
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'margins' becomes 'lips' (I've seen this before).
'suffering' indicates anagramming the letters.
'hesitation' becomes 'um' (um is said in hesitation).
'more' anagrammed gives 'orem'.
'lips' going around 'orem' is 'loremips'.
'loremips'+'um'='LOREM IPSUM'
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
