The English idioms built on my way do not transfer word for word. My way or the highway becomes friss oder stirb, “eat or die” — the defiance survives, the image does not. And get my way becomes sich durchsetzen, to prevail, which is a plainer verb than the English phrase and carries none of its swagger.
Art kind, manner, species
One noun across three fields, including biology. English needs way, sort and species.
Weg way, road, path
The physical way. It does not cover manner, which is where German splits what English joins.
Meinung opinion
Meiner Meinung nach is “in my opinion” — the sense my way does not have.
