Not in any way practical knowledge being voiced (5)

I believe the answer is:

nohow

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'not in any way' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for nohow that I've seen before include "In any manner" , "Under no circumstances (as Tweedledum said)" , "Absolutely not in America" , "Never" , "Not in any way (colloq.)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
