Idiom
InformalWhat is the origin of the idiom "through and through" and when to use it?
The idiom "through and through" originated from Middle English and has been in use since the 14th century. It combines the word "through" (meaning completely or thoroughly) with itself to emphasize completeness or thoroughness. Over time, it evolved into an idiomatic expression used to describe something or someone as entirely characterized by a particular quality, condition, or trait.
