End your sentence with tradional way ; usually when you use the expression in that sense you would not be referring to your five sense, instead you would be referring to a point you made earlier in your writing.

Empty complementizers Some analyses allow for the possibility of invisible or "empty" complementizers.

- Its existence in English has been proposed based on the following type of alternation: He hopes you go ahead with the speech He hopes that you go ahead with the speech Because that can be inserted between the verb and the embedded clause, the original sentence without a visible complementizer would be reanalyzed as He hopes øC you go ahead with the speech This suggests another interpretation of the earlier "how" sentence: I read in the paper <how> øC [it's going to be cold today] where "how" serves as a specifier to the empty complementizer.
