exhaustive
의미: Examining, including, or considering all elements or aspects; fully comprehensive to the point where nothing remains to be covered.
Exhaustive implies that a process has been carried to its absolute limit — every avenue explored, every option considered. It is stronger than 'thorough' and carries a slight connotation of effort or even fatigue, as though the subject has been pursued until it is literally exhausted. 'Exhaustive list,' 'exhaustive search,' and 'exhaustive study' are standard collocations. In academic and legal contexts, it signals that nothing has been left to chance.
