谁, 什么, 哪儿 Meaning “Anyone”, “Anything”, “Something”
Use question words in statements: 谁都知道 for “everyone knows”, 想吃什么就吃什么 for “whatever you like”, and 吃点儿什么 for “something”.
Padrão
question word + 都/也 + (不/没) + verb; …question word…,就…same question word…; verb + (点儿) + question word (= something)
Put a question word before 都 and it means “any”; use the same one twice and it means “whatever”; leave it unstressed in a statement and it means “some”.
这件事谁都知道。
When to use 谁, 什么, 哪儿 Meaning “Anyone”, “Anything”, “Something”
A question word followed by 都 or 也 means “any … at all”: 谁都 “anyone, everyone”, 什么都 “anything”, 哪儿都 “anywhere”. The question word goes before 都/也 and the verb, even when it is the object: 我什么都吃 “I eat anything”. With 不 or 没 it means “not any”: 我什么都不想吃 “I don’t want to eat anything”. The sentence has no 吗 and is not a question.
我什么都喜欢吃。
I like eating everything.
放假的时候我哪儿都没去。
I didn’t go anywhere during the holiday.
我怎么叫他,他都不起床。
No matter how I call him, he won’t get up.
你想买什么就买什么。
Compre o que quiser.
Erros comuns

- Don’t add 吗 when you mean “what”: 你想喝什么? asks what someone wants, while 你想喝点儿什么吗? only asks whether they want anything.
