prairie

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

'is plain' is the definition.
(type of plain)

'couple getting right inside that' is the wordplay.
'couple' becomes 'pair' (synonyms).
'getting' is an insertion indicator.
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'inside that' becomes 'ie' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'pair' going around 'r' is 'prair'.
'prair'+'ie'='PRAIRIE'

Can you help me to learn more?
