Way is the least specific: "Many ways meet in one town" (Shakespeare). We made our way on foot. Show me the way home. Route refers to a planned, well-established, or regularly traveled way: "Their one purpose of speed over the great ocean routes was achieved by perfect balance of spars and sails to the curving lines of the smooth black hull" (Samuel Eliot Morison). Course suggests the path or channel taken by something that moves: "earth's diurnal course" (William Wordsworth). Passage denotes a traversal over, across, or through something: The shortcut was a dark passage between the buildings. Pass usually refers to a way affording passage around, over, or through a barrier: "They had reached one of those very narrow passes between two tall stones" (George Eliot). An artery is a main route for the circulation of traffic into which local routes flow: An accident on the central artery backed up traffic for miles. See Also Synonyms at method. Usage Note: Way has long been an intensifying adverb meaning "to a great degree," as in way over budget. This usage is both acceptable and common but has an informal ring. · Way is also used as a general intensifier, as in way cool and way depressing. This locution has expanded beyond its original range of younger speakers, but it is still regarded as slang. · In American English ways is often used as an equivalent of way in phrases such as a long ways to go. The usage is acceptable but is usually considered informal. |
