This grammar point is not about how to use [https://resources.allsetlearning.com/chinese/grammar/Expressing_%22every%22_with_%22mei%22 每 (měi) to mean &quot;every,&quot;] but rather how to combine [https://resources.allsetlearning.com/chinese/grammar/Question_word question words] with [https://resources.allsetlearning.com/chinese/grammar/%E9%83%BD 都] (dōu) to make words and phrases like &quot;everywhere&quot; or &quot;everyone.&quot; You may have learned this same pattern for [https://resources.allsetlearning.com/chinese/grammar/Expressing_%22everything%22_with_%22shenme_dou%22 expressing &quot;everything,&quot;] but now it's time to extend it.

== <span id=".22Everyone.22_with_.E8.B0.81_.E9.83.BD" class="mw-headline">&quot;Everyone&quot; with 谁 都</span> ==

谁 都 (shéi dōu) is a pattern used to express &quot;everyone&quot; (or possibly &quot;anyone&quot;) in Chinese. The placement of the question word 谁 is very similar to the way [https://resources.allsetlearning.com/chinese/grammar/Expressing_%22all%22_with_%22shenme_dou%22 什么 (shénme) can be used to express &quot;every&quot;], along with other question words like 哪儿 (nǎr) and 多少 (duōshǎo).

=== <span id="Structure" class="mw-headline">Structure</span> ===

<div class="jiegou">

谁 + 都 + Predicate


</div>
The [https://resources.allsetlearning.com/chinese/grammar/Predicate predicate] part of the pattern can be a verb or an adjective.

=== <span id="Examples" class="mw-headline">Examples</span> ===

<div class="liju">

* ''谁'' '''都''' 喜欢 美食 。<span class="pinyin">''Shéi'' '''dōu''' xǐhuan měishí.</span><span class="trans">Everyone likes delicious food.</span>
* ''谁'' '''都''' 可以 进 。<span class="pinyin">''Shéi'' '''dōu''' kěyǐ jìn.</span><span class="trans">Everyone can come in.</span>

</div>
== <span id=".22Everywhere.22_with_.E5.93.AA.E5.84.BF_.E9.83.BD" class="mw-headline">&quot;Everywhere&quot; with 哪儿 都</span> ==

This pattern also works with 哪儿 (nǎr).

=== <span id="Structure_2" class="mw-headline">Structure</span> ===

<div class="jiegou">

哪儿 / 哪里 (+ Verb) + 都 + Predicate


</div>
=== <span id="Examples_2" class="mw-headline">Examples</span> ===

什么时候 (shénme shíhou) combines with 都 (dōu) to mean &quot;whenever&quot; or &quot;anytime.&quot;

=== <span id="Structure_3" class="mw-headline">Structure</span> ===

<div class="jiegou">

什么时候 (+ Verb) + 都 + Predicate


</div>
=== <span id="Examples_3" class="mw-headline">Examples</span> ===

== <span id=".22However_Much.22_with_.E5.A4.9A.E5.B0.91_.E9.83.BD" class="mw-headline">&quot;However Much&quot; with 多少 都</span> ==

</div>
=== <span id="Examples_4" class="mw-headline">Examples</span> ===
