<p>你让我做什么, 我就做什么。= If you want me to do it, then I will do it. (什么 indicates a thing specified by that person.)</p>
<p>(1) This is a very useful structure of sentences in the Chinese language. For example,</p>
<p>你要什么，我就给你买什么。= 你要什么东西，我就给你买什么东西。= I will buy whatever you want. = I will buy it if you want it.</p>
<p>你做了什么，我就吃什么。= 你做了什么饭，我就吃什么饭。= I would like to have whatever you cook. = It doesn't matter what you cook, I would like it.</p>
<p>你说什么对，就是什么对。= Whatever you think is correct, that is correct.</p>
<p>你说哪个好，就是哪个好。= Whichever you think is better, that is better.</p>
<p>你想啥时候走，就啥时候走。= Whenever you want to go, we will go.</p>
<p>(2) This structure can be translated into English using the following words,</p>
<p>Whatever, Whichever, Whenever, Wherever, Whoever, However.</p>
<p>Those words just correspond to 5W1H.</p>
<p>(3) Those English words can be in turn translated into 无论，不论，不管。for example, 女人对男人说，结婚以后，不管你去哪里，我都跟你去。</p>
<p>(4) The words 都 and 也 can be used in similar situations. For example,</p>
<p>买衣服时，女人问男人，你说，我是买红色的呢，还是粉色的呢？</p>
<p>男人说，都行。</p>
<p>男人也可以说，红色的也行，粉色的也行。</p>
<p>男人还可以说，你喜欢什么颜色的，就买什么颜色的。</p>
