Move your way to...
|
Dear friends, could you help me with the definition of the phrase "move your way to..."? Does it mean to reach a certain achievement by putting a lot of effort into your work? Thank you for your help.

I would say work your way to. Let �s wait and see what native speakers think about your phrase.

I agree with zvonka. It �s usually �work your way to/towards � I haven �t heard �move your way � in this context. �Move forward � would be OK in this context. �She moved forward/she moved towards her goal by studying hard... � I would say that �move your way to � is the same as the more usually used �make your way to � and is used in the literal sense. |

Move your way is used in health contexts, reflecting movement and fitness. For example, I have not heard it used in non-heath contexts. Cheers Jayho |
