Morphology

someway = some + way (transparent) = some + way

The word is a clear combination of 'some' and 'way', indicating an unspecified method or means.

Etymology

Someway is made from some ('a certain' or 'one') and way ('path' or 'method'). So it originally meant 'by a certain path', and that's why today we use someway to say something is done 'in a way we do not know' or 'by some means'.
