Hint:

Not available

Explanation:

By some measure" hints at a phrase meaning "in a certain way of looking at it," which is exactly what "in one sense" conveys. The word "measure" plays double duty—it can mean a unit of calculation, but also a perspective or interpretation, leading to "sense." The answer is a common expression used to qualify a statement, like saying something is true depending on how you define it.
