A limit, end, or extremity; in various contexts, can denote a boundary (geographical or abstract), a point of cessation, or nonexistence. Used often as a negative particle or adverbial expression (e.g., nothing, none, only) to indicate the absence of something or the idea of exclusivity ('none besides'). Can also refer, in the dual form, to the ankle, as the extremity of the leg.

end-limit
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common, masculine singular, absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | As a masculine singular absolute noun derived from a root meaning "to end" or "to cease," this form denotes a boundary or point of cessation. "End-limit" preserves both the sense of termination and extremity inherent in the root without importing contextual nuances. |
