when --> Quando whenever (at any time) --> Sempre que (A qualquer momento) they are really similar but not quite the same. i hope it clarifies it a little bit :)

Hi Nanda, I am not sure if we are allowed to post links to external sites, but this one provides a good explanation: http://www.grammarbook.com/newsletters/090412.htm As a quick summary... If you are talking about a single event, or the date and time is known, you normally use "when". If you are talking about repeating events, or the date and time is not known, use "whenever". I hope that helps
