- <p>哪怕 (nǎpà) means "even if," and has a slightly stronger tone than <a href="Expressing_"Even_if…"_with_"jishi"" title="wikilink">即使</a> or <a href="Expressing_"Even_if…"_with_"jiusuan"" title="wikilink">就算</a>. It is therefore often used to disregard hypothetical statements of a more serious nature. It is normally used with <a href="也" class="uri" title="wikilink">也</a>. Some forms of the pattern also use <a href="再" class="uri" title="wikilink">再</a>.</p>
- <h2 id="basic-form">Basic Form</h2>
- <p>The basic "even if" form should be familiar if you know how to use <a href="Expressing_"Even_if…"_with_"jishi"" title="wikilink">即使</a> or <a href="Expressing_"Even_if…"_with_"jiusuan"" title="wikilink">就算</a>.</p>

- <h3 id="structure-with-再">Structure with 再</h3>
- <p>哪怕 is often followed by 再 (in the first part of the sentence) to give further emphasis to what the speaker is saying won't make a difference. In this usage, it's very similar to "no matter," which can also be expressed by patterns like <a href=""No_matter"_with_"buguan"" title="wikilink">不管</a>.</p>

- <p>Note: some <a href="verb" title="wikilink">verbs</a> can also be used with this pattern in place of the adjective.</p>
