Someway

/ˈsʌmweɪ/ adverb

Definition

In some manner or by some method; somehow, though usually suggesting an uncertain or unspecified way.

Etymology

'Someway' is a compound of 'some' and 'way,' emerging in Middle English as a variant of 'somehow.' It carries the same vague sense of 'in one way or another' without specifying the exact method.

Kelly Says

English has several ways to say 'somehow'—'someway,' 'somehow,' and 'some way'—and they all mean basically the same thing, which shows how English is constantly layering synonyms on top of each other from different origins and eras!
