老师们好,下面这个句子:
Whatever manufacturing companies survive this hell will be set to mintmoney.
whatever引导名词从句的时候,是可以换成anything that/which,还是any…that?依据具体语境,换成whatever后面的名词。这个句子如此理解对么?
Any manufacturing companies that survive this hell么?谢谢!
你的理解是对的。假如whatever 用作代词(其后不接被修饰的名词),它等于anythingthat/which;假如whatever 用作形容词(其后接有被修饰的名词),它等于any…that。
Whatever manufacturing companies survive this hell will be set to mintmoney.
=Any manufacturing companies that survive this hell will be set to mintmoney.
又如:
I eat whatever I want and I still don't seem to put on weight. 我想吃甚么就吃甚么,仍然不见体重有所增长。(whatever为代词,whatever=anythingthat…)
He'll be ready to accept whatever help he can get. 他将想同意能得到的任何帮助。(whatever为形容词,whatever help=anyhelp that…)
