Bothwhatever and what ever can be used in sentences such as Whatever (or What ever ) made her say thatô Critics have occasionally objected to the one-word form,but it is supported by extensive precedent in reputable writing.The same is true of the formswhoever, whenever, wherever, and however when these expressions are used similarly. In adjectival uses only the one-word form is used:Take whatever (not what ever ) books you need. ô When a clause beginning withwhatever is the subject of a sentence, no comma should be used: Whatever you do is right. Otherwise, a comma may be used:Whatever you do, don`t burn the toast. ô When the phrase preceding a restrictive clause is introduced bywhichever or whatever, that should not be used in formal writing. It is regarded as incorrect to writewhatever book that you want to look at; one should write insteadWhatever book you want to look at will be sent to your office or Whichever book costs less (not that costs less ) is fine with us. See Usage Note at however ,that
whateverwhat ever 這兩個詞都可用在例如 Whatever (或 What ever ) made her say thatô(究竟是什麼使得她說那樣的話ô) 這樣的句子裡。 批評家們經常反對單一詞形,但有聲望作品的大量先例卻支持了單詞形式。同樣地,當whoever, whenever, whereverhowever 這些表述被用於類似情況時,其情形也是如此。 用作定語時只用單詞形式:Take whatever不是 what everbooks you need。(拿那些你要的書)whatever 為句首的從句作句子主語時,不能用逗號: Whatever you do is right(無論你做什麼都是對的)。 在其他情況可以用逗號:Whatever you do, don`t burn the toast(不管你做什麼,不要烤糊了吐司) ô 當先於一限定性從句的短語是由whicheverwhatever引入時, that不能用在正式文體中。 這樣的句子:whatever book that you want to look at(無論哪本你想看的書) 是被看作不正確的; 相反應該是Whatever book you want to look at will be sent to your office(你想看的任何一本書都將會送到你的辦公室去) 或者 Whichever book costs less (不是 that costs less ) is fine with us(花費少一些的書比較適合我們) 參見 however,that
