Scour vs. Search

Key Differences

Scour, when used in the context of cleaning, refers to scrubbing something rigorously to remove dirt or grime. In contrast, search implies a systematic or thorough attempt to find something or someone.

In another sense, scour can mean to search an area or place exhaustively, often for something specific or hard to find. Search, however, can be a more general term for the act of looking for anything without the connotation of intensity.

Scour suggests a deeper level of intensity and thoroughness, often involving hard work or persistence. Search can be more casual or less intensive, like searching for a book in a library.

To scour can also mean to examine or explore an area in great detail, typically in a more vigorous or exhaustive manner. Search is broader and may not always imply as much detail or effort.

Scouring often has an urgency or seriousness associated with it, especially in the context of searching for something. Searching, while it can be serious, does not inherently carry the same level of urgency or exhaustive effort.
