  • Usage notes

    * Thru'' is mostly used where the preposition ''through'' could be used (e.g. ''Monday thru''' Friday''); it is less common as an adjective or adverb (''I'm '''thru with the vacuuming ). It is less used in formal situations, except in cases where brevity is wanted such as roadway signs or date ranges. * This spelling is not used in standard British English, though it can be found as an abbreviation – similar to thro' – and is recently becoming noticeable due to use by American-based companies. It may also be used as an eye dialect spelling in some regions. ** Through'' is rarely used in any spelling to indicate ranges in British English; '' are used instead. * Thru'' is often used, in both American and British English, in professional drafting (''5/8? thru hole ) to save space and simplify annotation on a drawing for fabrication or construction.
