Yes, in English if you want to talk about lots of unspecified people you can use the phrase "every Tom, Dick and Harry".
So, it's like saying everyone, right?
That's right. But it's more informal and slightly humorous.
Okay, I think you should demonstrate its use Kaz.
Good idea Li.
Now, imagine I tell you something in confidence, in private I could ask you not to repeat it.
Because we don't want everyone knowing about it.
Exactly, we don't want every Tom, Dick and Harry knowing about it.  
We don't want every Tom, Dick and Harry knowing our secret, Kaz.
You've got it, Li.
Okay, let's listen to some examples:
Shhhhh! Lower your voice! We don't want every Tom, Dick and Harry to hear us.
Make sure you send out invitations, otherwise you'll have every Tom, Dick and Harry showing up at your party.小编自翻译 如有不妥之处欢迎指出(* ̄︶ ̄)y
是的 在英语中如果你想要提到很多不确切的"人" 就可以用上这个短语"every Tom, Dick and Harry"
所以说这个短语就是所有人的意思么
是的 但是这个短语更加通俗 而且还有一些幽默感
我们来演示一遍吧kaz
好的
现在设想我在和你说一个小秘密 并且让你不要说出去
因为我们不想让任何人知道w
是 We don't want every Tom, Dick and Harry 知道我们的秘密
We don't want every Tom, Dick and Harry knowing our secret, Kaz.
就是这样(o゜▽゜)o☆[BINGO!]
现在我们来听几个例子
嘘 小点儿声 别让别人听到了
检查一下你的邀请信 不然随便什么人都会来你的聚会
