How do you use "No matter XXXX"?
and also what does mean exactly?.
for example
-No matter what-----?
-No matter which----?
-No matter who---?
is it formal style?
Do you use it often?
Thanks

I don't think I've ever said, "No matter which---", but I have used the other two. I use "no matter what" a lot.
It is an informal way of speaking and is like "nothing".

Examples:
"No matter what you say, I'm right." (Anything you say will not prove me wrong.)

"No matter who asks me to the dance, I won't go." (I won't go to the dance with anyone.)

Yes actually most people whom speak English do indeed use the first two phrases you've listed above...

:)



A lot of the time we are making a statement when using those two phrases .




"No matter which" typically isn't used while speaking the English language. Nor is it exactly correct, because it would have some type of verb at the end to specify exactly which one....


In all honesty though,
The most common phrase said out of those is ..
"No matter what! " and " No matter who! "


Hope I helped. :)

My understanding of "no matter what" and "no matter who"...

........is like regardless of whatever is happening or of whomever is doing or receivng the action.

Usage: No matter what you say, I would still do it.
No matter who leads the group, I would abide by the decision.
