Italian word

termine

term, word, deadline, boundary, end

Looks like

terminal

end point; airport terminal; computer terminal; terminally ill

⚠️ The trap

'Termine' covers 'term' and 'deadline' but does not mean 'terminal' (airport wing or computer screen). Those use the borrowed word 'terminal' or 'terminale'.

To say "end point; airport terminal; computer terminal; terminally ill" in Italian:

terminal (for airport); terminale (for medical/computer use)

"termine" in English means:

term, word, deadline, boundary, end

Example

"Il termine per la consegna è venerdì."

"The deadline for submission is Friday."
