It’s not a smart idea to admit every Tom, Dick, and Harry to the party.
请翻译句子。为何是Tom, Dick and Harry?
Tom, Dick or Harry 和 Tom, Dick and Harry 是英语中的惯用表达,像汉语中“张三李四”“阿猫阿狗”。举似如:
Nowadays they let in every Tom, Dick, and Harry. 过去这家酒店档次非常高,目前张三李四大家都能住。
I didn’t want every Tom, Dick, and Harry knowing about my private life. 我不想让张3、李四等所有不相干的人了解我的私生活。
Draw the curtains or we’ll have every Tom, Dick and Harry peering through the window. 拉上窗帘,不然有人能从窗户里看见大家。
This hotel used to be exclusive. Nowadays they let in every Tom, Dick, and Harry. 过去这家酒店档次非常高,目前张三李四大家都能住。
网友的句子意思是:
It’s not a smart idea to admit every Tom, Dick, and Harry to the party. 让张三李四大家都吸收入党的做法是不明智的。
