Terminal in swedish is slutstation
Is it? Unless terminal is another word for final station.
Yes, terminal means "end" or similar. Eg. "Terminal cancer", "the airport terminal" etc. same root word as"terminate"
And are termites the "enders"?
No, the "sluts".
Computer terminal is literally called a terminal because it's the thing on the user side end of the long long wire that starts from the big big computer.
One of those things that make a lot more sense if you think hard of the history.
Well, it is where everybody gets off…
