How the following thing is expressed in English. Sorry, my wording is complicated, but you must think a very, very simple thing. So, one goes, for. e.g. from London to Manchester. What does that person do then, expressing it in such a way that there is this way leading from London to Manchester, what does this person do with any kind of way, if it is called ”way” at all, which leads one place to another place?
Can one say the following? "I’ve already done that way many times."
Or: "It was difficult to do/cover/complete the way."
Or: "I had to walk (along) the whole way on foot.
(It is very difficult for me to see when we must talk about way or distance or journey.)
Make the trip from X to Z.
Made the way from X to Z
Travelled from X to Z
@KaJe,
When talking about how we made the journey we'd talk about the route taken. There's more than one route, even by train. Some like to take a very direct route while others are more circular.
@izzythepush,
Taking the route, yes, that is just the phrase that I was looking for. Thanks very much!
