2 hold one's way
1) следовать, не отставать, держать путьThe... reeds of the jungle were moving like the ripple of the ocean, when distorted by the course of a shark holding its way near the surface. (W. Scott, ‘The Surgeon's Daughter’, ch. XIII) —...движение тростника в джунглях напоминало рябь на поверхности океана, которую вызывает плывущая неглубоко акула.
2) продолжать идти своим путём, держатьсяPeople who have enough to do to hold their own way... had better be content with their own obligations and difficulties, and not increase them by engaging for other men. (Ch. Dickens, ‘Dombey and Son’, ch. X) — Люди, которым столько труда стоит самим удержаться на ногах... должны думать о собственных обязательствах и затруднениях и не увеличивать их, ручаясь за других.
