4 -how ever o however; what ever o whatever?-
Nota d'usoA volte è un problema decidere se scrivere however, whatever, ecc., o how ever, what ever, ecc. Se ever viene usato con how, what, ecc. per esprimere sorpresa o incredulità, si possono trovare due parole separate: How ever did you find out? come mai lo hai scoperto? What ever did she say? che cosa può aver detto? Se il significato di however, whatever, ecc. è “non importa come, cosa, ecc.”, si scrivono preferibilmente come una sola parola: Whatever you decide to do, it will be difficult, qualsiasi cosa (“non importa cosa”) tu decida di fare, sarà difficile. I'll follow you wherever you go, ti seguirò ovunque (“non importa dove”) andrai.English-Italian dictionary > -how ever o however; what ever o whatever?-
