QW…就…QW…grammar point · tier 2 · QW…就…QW… free-choice (whatever/whoever/wherever you X, that same one Y)
Free choice: the same question word appears on both sides of 就; the first slot picks freely, and the second is whatever the first turned out to be.
字源 FORM what the parts do
The same question word fills both slots and drops its question force. The first copy leaves the choice open; 就 binds the second copy to whatever filled the first.
故事 STORY a scene to remember it by
A blank stamp presses into clay; 就 casts a second print in the exact shape of the first.

[subj] [verb] QW，[subj] 就 [verb] QW
觸 · Trigger
You want to say the choice is open and the outcome just follows it — do whatever you like, go wherever you please.
序 · The move
1Pick the question word that names the open variable (什麼 thing, 誰 person, 哪 which, 哪裡 place).Is the thing genuinely free to be any value?
2Write the first clause with that QW left open, then 就, then repeat the clause with the SAME QW.Are both copies the identical word?
3Read it back as 'whatever X, that same X Y'.Does the second slot only mirror the first, never set a new value?
