From 'at-' combined with 'terminal,' influenced by Latin 'atterminalis.' The prefix 'at-' and Latin root suggest an approach toward without reaching the terminal point.
This rare legal and philosophical term describes states that keep going without resolution—like an 'atterminal' debate that circles forever without reaching 'terminal' conclusions.
