Question Words Without Questions: 谁都, 什么都

Use 谁, 什么, 哪儿 and 怎么 to mean “anyone”, “anything”, “whatever” or “something” in statements, not questions.

Padrão

question word + 都/也 + verb; question word … 就 … same question word; verb + (点儿) + question word

When to use Question Words Without Questions: 谁都, 什么都

A question word does not always ask a question. Put 都 or 也 right after it and it means “any, every”: 谁都 “anyone, everyone”, 什么都 “anything, everything”, 哪儿都 “anywhere”. The question word and 都 both go before the verb, even when the question word is the object: 我什么都吃, not 我吃什么都. With 不 or 没 after 都/也, it means “nobody, nothing, nowhere”: 谁也没来 “nobody came”.

这件事谁都知道。

Everyone knows about this.

你想吃什么就吃什么。

Erros comuns

  • Put 不 or 没 after 都/也: 我什么也不想吃 “I don’t want to eat anything”, not 我不什么都想吃.
  • 你想吃点儿什么吗？ asks “Do you want something to eat?”; drop the 吗 only if you mean “What do you want to eat?”
