Definition
The opposite end or terminus of something; the far end that opposes or balances another end.
Etymology
From 'counter-' + 'end' (from Old English 'endian', meaning to finish). Simple compound that describes spatial opposition along a linear axis.
Kelly Says
This seems like a simple word, but it's really about perspective—the 'counterend' of a bridge depends entirely on which end you're standing at. Language itself changes meaning based on where you're positioned.
