Scrupulous

Scrupulous



fussy; careful; precise;

doing something with a lot of attention.

He painted in a scrupulous style. Each brushstroke was thought about.

Memory trick:

srup reminds of scrub

we scrub by doing it over and over

we scrub it until it is clean

Used at work:

You're a scrupulous accountant. Your numbers are always right.
