everyone

or everybody
1 [PRON] oft PRON else
You use everyone or everybody to refer to all the people in a particular group.
Everyone in the street was shocked when they heard the news...
When everyone else goes home around 5 p.m. Lynn is still hard at work...
Not everyone thinks that the government is being particularly generous.
no one, nobody
2 [PRON]
You use everyone or everybody to refer to all people.
Everyone feels like a failure at times...
You can't keep everybody happy.
no one, nobody
