Army corps with lack of communication, one bound to be showing adaptability (10)
I believe the answer is:
resilience
'adaptability' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'army corps with lack of communication one bound to be' is the wordplay.
'army corps' becomes 'RE' (Royal Engineers).
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'lack of communication' becomes 'since' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'one bound' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'to be' becomes 'lie' (lying is a kind of being).
'since' placed around 'lie' is 'silience'.
're'+'silience'='RESILIENCE'
'showing' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for resilience that I've seen before include "Ability to spring back" , "make quick recovery" , "Ability to bounce back" , "Ability to recover quickly" , "flexibility" .)
