Wizard's job? Putting characters in order (8)
I believe the answer is:
spelling
'order' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both related to communication as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
'wizard's job? putting characters in' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'in' is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for spelling that I've seen before include "kind of bee?" , "Reciting the letters of a word" , "Relieving" , "Giving a word's letters" , "Taking turn" .)
