Expressing “Every” with Question Words

疑问词 + 都

yíwèncí + dōu

How it works

Question words plus 都 (dōu) can express broad meaning such as:

everything

everyone

everywhere

every time

Example sentences

他什么都知道。

Tā shénme dōu zhīdào.

He knows everything.

我们哪儿都去过。

Wǒmen nǎr dōu qù guo.

We have been everywhere.

谁都不愿意这样做。

Shéi dōu bù yuànyì zhèyàng zuò.

No one is willing to do this.

Key point

The question word loses its question meaning here and becomes a general expression.
