حَتَّى لَو

Even if, as long as, unless

Three conditions with a twist - حتى لو, ما دام and إلا إذا

Once "إذا" and "لَو" are comfortable, these three are small variations on them.

"حَتَّى لَو" says the condition makes no difference at all. "ما دام" says something holds for as long as the condition does. "إِلّا إذا" is the negative one, carving out the single exception.
