totally destroy
Wipe out completely
To totally destroy something is to eliminate it completely, leaving nothing salvageable or recoverable.
The phrase emphasizes thoroughness beyond ordinary destruction: The fire totally destroyed the warehouse.
In casual speech, it often describes decisive victories or humiliations: We totally destroyed them in the playoffs.
The intensifier adds emphasis but is sometimes redundant—destruction already implies completeness.
