Terminus Terminal



1550s, 'goal, end, final point,' from Latin terminus (plural termini) 'an end, a limit, boundary line,' from PIE *ter-men- 'peg, post,' from root *ter-, base of words meaning 'peg, post; boundary, marker, goal' (source also of Sanskrit tarati 'passes over, crosses over,' tarantah 'sea;' Hittite tarma- 'peg, nail,' tarmaizzi 'he limits;' Greek terma 'boundary, end-point, limit,' termon 'border;' Gothic þairh, Old English þurh 'through;' Old English þyrel 'hole;' Old Norse þrömr 'edge, chip, splinter'). 'The Hittite noun and the usage in Latin suggest that the PIE word denoted a concrete object which came to refer to a boundary-stone.' [de Vaan]
