So put together, ても構わないmeans “Even if …, it doesn’t matter” or “I don’t mind if ….” Since it is a polite expression, it is not used for people who are in a close relationship. 〜てもいい / 〜ても問題ない are used more often. 携帯電話はメッセージと電話ができさえすれば、古くても構わない。 It doesn’t matter if the mobile phone is old as long as I can message and call. 給料は高くなくても構わないけど、低すぎてもいいわけではない。 It doesn't matter if the salary is not high, but it doesn't mean that it should be too low. 好きなだけ美味しいものを食べられるとしたら、太っても構わない。 If I can eat as much delicious food as I like, I don’t mind getting fat. It can be made into a question ても構いませんか？which means “do you mind if”. This is like a more polite way of てform+もいいですか？ コンビニに行くついでに、郵便局に行っても構いませんか？ Do you mind if I take the opportunity to go to the post office while going to the convenience store? 見ているばかりでなく、手伝ってもらっても構いませんか？ Could you not only look but also help me? Interrogative word + でも+ 構わない いつでも構わない　Anytime is fine どこでも構わない　Anywhere is fine だれでも構わない　Anyone is fine なんでも構わない　Anything is fine どちらでも構わない　Whichever is fine A：日本料理と中華料理とどちらがいいかなあ？ B：どちらでも構わないよ。 A: Which is better, Japanese food or Chinese food? B: Whichever is fine! A：いつでも構わないけど、あの本返してくれない？ B：あ、ごめん。まだ読みかけなんだ！ A: Whenever is fine, but can you return that book? B: Oh, I'm sorry. I haven’t finished reading it!
