Phrase whatever
Text In this podcast, the word "whatever" is used to show that one does not believe or agree with what another person has said: "When Holly told Gregory that she never lies, he said, 'Whatever. And I suppose you can walk on water, too.'" The word "whatever" can also be used to show that one does not have a preference, and will do what the other person wants: "'Do you want to go to the movies or the circus?' 'Whatever. You decide.'" The phrase "whatever you do" is used to warn a person not to do something, no matter what else happens: "Whatever you do, don't open that door!" Finally, the phrase "or whatever," is used at the end of a list to mean any other similar thing: "We can go hiking, fishing, camping, or whatever."
