Thorough is a word that means complete or finished. It is an adjective. It is pronounced as thur-oh. This word is also used as an adverb and a preposition in the English language. It has been in the English language since the olden days. It was used for the first time in the English language to describe the administrative policies of the Earl of Stafford and Archbishop Laud during the reign of Charles I which was uncompromisingly carried out. Thus it is an archaic term.

Thus this word is used to denote anything thing, act or people who is exhaustively complete, very accurate and absolute in themselves. It is another variant of the words through or thru. The antonyms of this word are deficient, incomplete, imperfect and inadequate while the words that are synonymous with thorough are methodical, systematic, detailed, comprehensive and meticulous.
