With special sense, muse about new language (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

esperanto

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

'language' is the definition.
(Esperanto is an example)

'with special sense muse about new' is the wordplay.
'with special sense' becomes 'esp' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'muse' becomes 'erato' (Erato is an example).
'about' is an insertion indicator.
'new' becomes 'n' (common abbreviation eg NT for New Testament).
'erato' going around 'n' is 'eranto'.
'esp'+'eranto'='ESPERANTO'
