THOROUGH
Complete verus: germanus (but ☞ before another adjective vere must be used not verus: a thorough Ciceronian *vere Ciceronianus): subtilis (of a person who performs anything with ingenuity accuracy or precision; of a thing done with such ingenuity etc.): acutus: in anything aliqua re or ad aliquid faciendum (of a person who penetrates to the very pith of a matter; of a thing made or done by such a person): accuratus (made or done with care and exactness; only of things): exquisitus. (The words are found in this connection and order.) exquisitus et minime vulgaris: reconditus et exquisitus (above the ordinary; of persons and things). ☞ Solidus is used by good modern writers in the sense of “thorough ” but without any ancient authority. A thorough scholar exquisita doctrina homo (who possesses more than ordinary learning); vir omnibus artibus perpolitus (a varied and extensive information): a thorough philosopher philosophus subtilis; philosophus acutus: thorough scholarship doctrina exquisita: to have a thorough knowledge of the Latin language bene (more strongly optime) Latine scire: to have a thorough acquaintance with Latin litterature in Latinis litteris multum versatum esse. “Thorough” may often be translated by summus maximus with or without omnium; by caput or princeps with a genitive; by totus ex aliqua re factus est or constat; versatus est in omni genere alicujus rei. In Plaut. by compounds with the Greek tri (trifur; triscurria): a thorough rogue trifurcifer (comedy); caput scelerum (Plaut.); princeps flagitiorum (Cic.); veterator. Sometimes by a superlative adjective: a thorough fool stolidissimus stultissimus.
That goes through per locum penetrans: locum lustrans.

thorough: germānus, v. PERFECT , No. V.: this is the best gen. equiv.: other adjs. may sometimes expr. the idea, as, subtīlis: v. EXACT , PRECISE ; sŏlĭdus, v. SOUND , GENUINE : the latter is used for t. by many modern writers, but often incorrectly: the superl. of an adj., or a compd. with per expr. the notion in many passages: a t. scholar, vir doctissimus or perdoctus: in com. or colloq. language tri- has a like force: a t.-paced knave, trifurcifer: see also THOROUGHLY . Phr.: t. friendship, vera et perfecta amicitia, Cic. Am. 6, 22: nothing worthy of t. knowledge, nihil magna cognitione dignum, id. Fin. 5, 19, 50.
