difference between 'anyway' and 'by the way'.

Question and answer

You would use the two separate words "any way" ONLY to indicate that alternate means or modes are acceptable. [ "You can do this assignment (in) any way you choose." But the adverb "anyway" indicates an inevitable conclusion regardless of the means of attempt. "We were going to do the assignment anyway." The confusion may arise from their use in motive travel or in steps to a process. For example "We couldn''t get there any way." "We couldn't get there anyway." In the first case a preposition "in" or "by" is omitted and the word "any" is used to mean "none of the many possible". In the

second, "anyway" substitutes for "regardless". *The stand-alone interjection is simply a segue from one idea to another, ending the original topic and moving to another, and is almost always conversational. "Anyway, I have to get back to work." Read more: ]

Grammatically, "grapple" is the infinitive, the basic form of a verb meaning to struggle, in or as if in wrestling. "Grappling" is the present participle of that verb. A GRAPPLE (noun) can also mean "an iron shaft with claws at one end, usually thrown by a rope and used for grasping and holding, especially one for drawing and holding an enemy ship alongside." "Grappling" would then be the present participle, the act of employing a grapple.
