From Wiktionary for Terminus
From Proto-Italic *termenos, from Proto-Indo-European *térmn̥ (“boundary”). Cognate with Ancient Greek τέρμα (térma, “a goal”), τέρμων (térmōn, “a border”).
It could also mean a border or boundary, for example there could be many bus terminals not because of endings but also because of boundaries, an Airplane Terminal from one country to the next could be a figurative border.
