Notas de uso
- Ovunque is neutral and common. Dovunque is a close synonym, often felt slightly more literary or formal.
- Use ovunque alone for statements; use ovunque tu sia/vada in subordinate clauses when English uses 'wherever you are/go.'
- Don't use it with a following noun directly. Say in every place or use dappertutto, not *ovunque il mondo.
