termini
Where lines end
Termini is the plural of terminus—an endpoint, boundary, or final destination.
The word appears most often in technical or formal contexts: the termini of a nerve fiber, the termini of a railway line.
The two termini of the transcontinental railroad met at Promontory Summit.
The alternative plural terminuses is also correct but less common.
