意思
Everywhere or in many different directions.
文化背景
Italians often use this to add emphasis to their stories. It is a very common, expressive idiom. The Spanish equivalent 'a diestro y siniestro' is used in a very similar way, showing a shared Mediterranean linguistic heritage. Portuguese speakers use 'a torto e a direito', which shows how different languages adapt the same concept of 'everywhere'. French speakers prefer 'à tort et à travers', which focuses on the lack of discrimination in an action.
Don't forget the 'a'
Always include the 'a' before 'manca'. It's a common mistake to skip it.
Use it for emphasis
It sounds much more natural than just saying 'ovunque' in casual conversation.
