Hello,
I recently learned about how to talk about ways of doing something by taking the masu stem of a verb and nominalising it with 方, e.g. 駅の行き方を教えてもらえないか?. In this example, what would be the direct object of the verb has taken the particle の, i.e. 駅に行く ➡️ 駅の行き方. My question is, how do you form this construction when the subject has to be mentioned? For example, how would you translate the sentence "Try to imitate how I'm doing this"? Would you just add another の, i.e. 僕のそれの仕方を模倣しようとして? Thanks!
