§Grammar and usage
Whatever + clause ('Whatever you decide is fine'); 'no matter what' has the same meaning ('No matter what happens'); whatever after a negative means 'at all' ('I have no doubt whatever').
Whatever + clause ('Whatever you decide is fine'); 'no matter what' का अर्थ समान है ('No matter what happens'); नकारात्मक के बाद whatever का अर्थ 'बिलकुल' है ('I have no doubt whatever')।
Usage: as a one-word reply ('Whatever.'), it sounds rude and dismissive, so avoid it in formal speech.
प्रयोग में एक-शब्द उत्तर के रूप में ('Whatever.') यह अशिष्ट और उपेक्षापूर्ण लगता है, इसलिए औपचारिक बातचीत में इससे बचें।
