For 24 I have word square, but can't parse, sorry

9a Ug(h) ric(h)
24/1 14 is 14a (i.e. WORD - a part of speech) and 225 is the SQUARE of 15.
Turn (dish = ruin) around 'duck' (nought) + E(nglish)

Thank everyone. I had DORIC instead of UGRIC.

WORD SQUARE BUT WHY? Oh boy I miss Araucaria - the lack of wit and elegance in the cryptic now is only matched by the lousy prize on offer. Remaindered books the Guardian can't shift.
24d.is word for clue 14 , 225 is 15 squared ( typical crossword size )
^ Sedge has parsed it.....lol, how true
I got the dish as TUREEN, and the first E becoming DUCK (nought)
That's correct
