Etymology of TERMINATIONAL

The word "terminational" is derived from the noun "termination" and the suffix "-al".

"Termination" comes from the Latin word "terminātiōnem", which means "a limiting" or "boundary", derived from the verb "termināre", meaning "to set boundaries" or "to end". The Latin root traces back to the noun "terminus", which refers to a limit or boundary.

The suffix "-al" is commonly used in English to form adjectives from nouns. In this case, it is added to the noun "termination" to create the adjective "terminational", indicating something relating to or associated with termination.
