nomatter常用作连词词组，作“不管”、“无论”解，后接what/who/when等词，引导让步状语从句，主要用于“nomatterwhat/which/who/whose/where/when/how…+主句”句型中。我们在运用时，应注意以下几点:

（1）从句的时态

nomatterwhat/who/when…表示无论在什么条件下进行随意的选择，都会出现主句所发生的情况，因此，从句中可用一般现在时表示未发生的动作。如：

Nomatterwhenhecomesagain，he’llbewelcome.

不管他何时再来，他都会受到欢迎。

Nomatterhowmanypatientscome，weshallbeabletolookafterthem.

无论来多少病人，我们都照料得了。

（2）被修饰的名词或形容词、副词的位置

nomatterwhat/which/whose还可以修饰名词，此名词必须紧跟其后，置于从句的主语之前；nomatterhow
