LEARNING CHUNKS & PARTICLES
Indefinite pronoun correlative structure meaning 'whoever does something must bear the corresponding consequence'
A highly frequent colloquial conditional pattern without overt conjunctions, commonly used to lay down ground rules, reason with someone, or delineate boundaries of responsibility (e.g., 'shui qu shui fu ze' - whoever goes takes responsibility).
Superficially signals consultation or conjecture, but functionally softens a direct command while exerting pressure and rhetorical confrontation.
