Golden Spanish phrases
Que you recuerde-as far as I remember
Que yo sepa-as far as I know
Cueste lo que cueste-whatever the cost

Por (adjetivo) que sean-however (adjective) they may be/as (adjective)as they may be

Dondequiera/donde sea-wherever
Comoquiera/como sea-however
IMPORTANT NOTE-keep in mind that quienquiera/quien sea (whoever), dondequiera/donde sea (wherever) and comoquiera/como sea (however) are followed by subjunctive, so if you haven’t learn it yet you could just use these ones on answer not in full sentences.
-quienquiera/quien sea (whoever), If you are organizing a party and one of your friends ask you:
¿Quién quieres que te ayude a organizar la fiesta? Who do you want to help you organize the party?
But you don’t care who helps you as long as someone does you could reply:
Quienquiera/quien sea whoever
-dondequiera/donde sea (wherever)
If you are talking you want to go on holidays and someone ask you
¿Dónde quieres ir de vacaciones? Where do you want to go on holidays?
But you don’t care where to, you just want to go you could say:
Dondequiera/donde sea Wherever.
-comoquiera/como sea (however)
If you are tidying up your library and your friend wants to help you and ask
¿Cómo quieres que ordene los libros? How do you want me to order the books?
And you don’t care, you just want them on the shelves you can say
