"谁也/都" (shéi yě/dōu) is a pattern used to express "everyone" in Chinese. The placement of the question word 谁 is very similar to the way 什么 can be used to express "every", along with other question words like 哪儿 and 多少. (NEEDS INTERNAL LINKS)

Examples

  • 谁 都 会 学习 汉语。
  • 谁 也 不 知道 他 做 了 什么。
  • 谁 都 想 挣 钱。
