A wh-word is any word that introduces questions and relative clauses. You know, clauses that are related to it. Okay, good. Let's continue. Some of the most common WH words are ....you know, these are really really common ones, why, who, which, what, where, whether, and how. So now you see why they call it WH words is the majority them actually do begin with WH except for how. Although 'how' does have a W in an H in it. But the \"W\" is at the end and the \"H\" is at the beginning But ' how' is considered to be a WH- word. Okay. Anyway, let's continue. The pattern is usually, no matter plus the WH word . plus the subject plus the verb. All right. So this is a problem I found mostly when I'm correcting students in writing. This comes up a lot in writing. A lot of students, where is the second language do this. It's most noticeable in writing. It's very obvious in writing. In speech, it might go by so fast you know, you'll... a native speaker will understand it but he may not say anything but he may know what's going on anyway. He may, he might be able to figure out what you know somebody where English is the second language is saying. But in writing it really pops out and it pops off the page. So let's look at the first example. Again here with the X. The X of course means it's wrong. So no matter he studies hard he cannot pass the exam. Again like if you.... if somebody where English was the second language was speaking, this native speaker would probably understand it, but it really looks bad in writing. So here's the correct way you should say it. No matter how. So here you put the WH word in here. No matter how hard he studies , he cannot pass the exam. Yeah. Suddenly this sentence sounds much better, much, much smoother , much more natural . Okay. So let's look at the second one. Again with the X. This is wrong. No matter he gets up early or late he's still usually ...he is still usually late for work. So again, with the check, this is correct. No matter whether you know, sometimes we use like weather for meaning like if , he gets up early or late... And the same thing he is still usually late for work. So again, you needed that WH-word to follow. No matter. Okay. Let's look at the last one here. No matter, he goes he couldn't find his missing dog. No. Of course with the check, this is right. This one is more obvious. No matter where he goes he couldn't find his missing dog. Well, anyway remember, so no matter plus a WH word, plus the subject, plus the verb. Again very, very important in writing. But even in speech you need to correct it, Anyway, I hope you got it. I hope it was clear. Thank you for your time. Bye-bye.
