After a fashion; to some extent (4,2)
I believe the answer is:
kind of
I believe this is a double definition.
'after a fashion' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)
'to some extent' is the second definition.

(Other definitions for kind of that I've seen before include "Rather" , "Not exactly" , "After a fashion" , "Somewhat" .)
