What does the "어느 모로나 " mean in 그녀는 어느 모로나 그녀의 여동생처럼 총명하다.? The definition for 모로 appears to mean "sideways" or" obliquely", which doesn't seem to make sense here, and not sure what the 나 is doing, I think it is normally a connecting particle meaning "or" when used between nouns. Thanks for any help, John.

it's not '모로+나'. it's '모+로+나' 모 means 'any-' or 'some-' like 김 모씨(kim doe/Anonymous) 이 모씨(lee doe/Anonymous) 로 means 'to' or 'for' i think you already knew usage of 나 '어느 모로나' means 'in every respect' example -> she plays soccer better than me, and studys better than me. in every respect, she is superior -> 그녀는 축구도 나보다 잘하고 공부도 나보다 잘한다. 어느 모로나 그녀가 더 우월하다. you can use 어느 모로 보나 instead of it

"in every respect."
