UsageWhen ever is used for emphasis after how or why, it should be written as a separate word. Thus it is correct to write how ever did you manage? rather than however did you manage? (as distinct from other uses of the adverb however, which is always written as one word). With other words such as what, where, and who, the situation is not clear-cut: both two-word and one-word forms (both what ever and whatever, and so on) are well represented, and neither is regarded as particularly more correct than the other Rhymesclever, endeavour (US endeavor), ever, forever, howsoever, never, never-never, sever, Trevor, whatever, whatsoever, whenever, whensoever, wheresoever, wherever, whichever, whichsoever, whoever, whomever, whomsoever, whosoever Definition of however in US English: howeveradverbhaʊˈɛvərhouˈevər 1Used to introduce a statement that contrasts with or seems to contradict something that has been said previously. 然而,可是,不过 People tend to put on weight in middle age.

UsageWhen ever is used as an intensifier after how, what, when, where, or why, it should be separated by a space. Thus, how ever did you find her? could be rephrased, with no change of meaning, how did you ever find her? This rule tends to be more often followed—or more widely understood—in Britain than in the US. However in the sense of ‘no matter how’ (however gently you correct him, Peter always takes offense) should be spelled as one word. See also whatever |
