How do you use (何, 誰, etc) + the verb in ようform + と


I was reading some sentences in japanese to practice and I came across this
sentence:

> 何を好きになろうと、誰と話そうと

According to google traslator it means something like: "no matter what you
like or who you talk to"

If the translation is right, what would be the difference between that and
(何,誰,etc)+the verb in て form+も

For example:

> 誰と話そうと  
>  誰と話しても

Please keep in mind I'm a beginner, thank you in advance.




They mean the same thing, but ～ようと is more literary in style, while ～ても is
relatively colloquial. The difference is not very big, and mature adults use
both in speech, but the more formal the situation is, the more often ～ようと is
chosen. There is also ～ようが, which is slightly more emphatic than ～ようと.
