This is how Romance people say everybody:
language | the world | all the world = everybody |
---|---|---|
Spanish | el mundo | todo el mundo |
French | le monde | tout le monde |
Portuguese | o mondo | todo o mundo |
Romanian | lumea (the definite article is indicated at the end, “lume+a” in this case). | toată lumea |
Italian | il mondo | tutto il mondo |
The noun world is femenine only in Romanian; in the rest of the languages it is masculine.
todo el mundo fue a la fiesta | everybody went to the party |
todo el mundo lo sabe | everybody knows it |
le dijiste a todo el mundo | you told everybody |
todo el mundo ha visto esa película | everybody has seen that movie |
ya se fue todo el mundo | everybody left already |
todo el mundo está feliz | everybody is happy |
Alternatively, you could use todos i.e., todos fueron a la fiesta.
If you don’t want to sound quite exaggerated, you can say in Spanish medio mundo sabe tu secreto, half the world knows your secret. Probably, only in Italian the meaning is literal, rather than everybody.
