English term or phrase: some way
Hi. How can way be translated please ? Thanks.

they attacked the creature and they burnt off the legs .The dream lasted for a couple days .It was night - time , then day -time, then night again . their group had no fear .That creature slid off the roof .Somehow they were able to get to her .It was probably a sunroof or some way that opened up somehow .This child of God’s not sure how they did it but they got to her pins and burnt them off with something they had . the creature slipped down the roof .It was a giant looking bug .It was really hideous . she slid off the roof and then they said : okay ,now we can get her .She's still dangerous but she's not flying .

ils ont attaqué la créature et ont brûlé ses jambes . le rêve a duré quelques jours .C'était la nuit , le jour , puis de nouveau la nuit .Leur groupe n'avait pas peur .Cette créature a glissé du toit .D'une manière ou d'une autre ils ont pu l'atteindre .C'était probablement un toit ouvrant ou un endroit chemin ? passage, une entrée ? qui s'est ouvert d'une manière ou d'une autre .Cet enfant de Dieu ne sait pas comment ils ont fait mais ils sont arrivés à ses gambettes et les ont brûlées avec quelque chose qu'ils avaient .La créature a glissé du toit .c'était un insecte à l'allure géante . il était vraiment hideux .Elle a glissé du toit et puis ils ont dit : d'accord ,maintenant nous pouvons l'avoir .Elle est toujours dangereuse mais elle vole pas .

quelque chemin


Explanation:
Bonsoir. C'est un peu compliqué d'imaginer un contexte concret sur base de cet extrait, vu qu'il y a peu de similarités entre un toit ouvrant et une route. Je dirais donc: quelque/l'un ou l'autre/une espèce de chemin/passage/accès. De plus, "open up" peut soit avoir le sens de s'ouvrir vers le haut, soit de s'ouvrir complètement.
