1. punctilious
/punk-TIL-ee-us/
Adjective
showing
great attention to detail or correct behavior
A punctilious person
pays attention to details. Are you always precisely on time? Is your room
perfectly neat? Do you never forget a birthday or a library book's due date?
Then you are one of the punctilious people.

The
adjective
punctilious, pronounced "punk-TIL-ee-us," is
related to the Italian word
puntiglio, meaning "fine
point." For someone who is
punctilious no point is too
fine, no detail too small, to be overlooked. The word is often used to describe
people, but it can be used more broadly to apply to observations, behavior, or
anything else that is characterized by close attention to detail.
