whichever引导主语从句的用法

whichever引导主语从句时，相义相当于any that, anyone who，通常译为“无论哪个……都”“无论谁……都”。如：

Whichever you want is yours. 你要哪一个，哪一个就是你的。

Whichever comes in first will receive a prize. 谁先到就会获奖。

whichever有时还可以修饰名词或后接表示范围的of短语。如：

Whichever team gains the most points wins. 哪个队得分最多，哪个队就赢。

Whichever of them gains the most points wins. 他们中哪一个得分最多，哪一个就赢。

注意，不要与whichever引导让步状语从句（=no matter which）时的用法相混淆。如：

Whichever side wins, I shall be happy. 不管哪边赢，我都会高兴。

Whichever he chooses, he is damned. 无论他挑选哪一个都会倒霉。

Whichever method you use, the result is much the same. 不论你用哪一种方法，结果都差不多。
