אֶפֶס

ʼepheç · Hebrew · Strong's H657 · 44 occurrences

The KJV renders 22 different Hebrew and Greek words as “end”

What it means

cessation, i.e. an end (especially of the earth); often used adverb, no further; also the ankle (in the dual), as being the extremity of the leg or foot

from H656 (אָפֵס); (sometimes like H6466 (פָּעַל))

How the KJV renders it

ankle, but, end, howbeit, less than nothing, nevertheless, none, not any, withstanding, thing of nought, save, there, uttermost part, want, without

Where that flattens a distinction

The same English word is also used for these other originals, so the distinction between them disappears in translation.
