一、what to do with和how to deal with的用法
do with 常与连接代词 what 连用,而 deal with 常与连接副词 how 连用,如:

2 .He is easy to deal with .(= He is easy to do with .这时“do”是不及物动词)他是容易相处的人.这两个词组在使用时有细微的差别.一般地说,do with 表示“处置”、“忍受”、“相处”、“有关”等.

用法说明
(1) 这样用的what相当于“先行词+关系代词”,所以其前不能有先行词:
你喜欢什么就拿什么吧。
正:You can have what you like./ You can have everything (that) you like.
误:You can have everything what you like.
(2) 有时what 可用作限定词,其后修饰一个名词:
I gave him what books I had.我把我所有的书都给他了。
He gave me what money he had about him.他把身边带有的钱全给了我。
(3) What 后的名词可以是复数名词或不可数名词,但通常不能是单数可数名词:
误:I gave him what book I had.
(4) What后接不可数名词时,有时可有little修饰。注意区别:what+不可数名词=所有的都,what little+不可数名词=虽少但全部。如:
I spent what time I had with her.我所有的时间都是与她一起度过的。
I spent what little time I had with her.我仅有的一点时间都是与她一起度过的。
