Finished, terminated (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ended

This clue is a double definition.

'finished' is the first definition.
(similar in meaning)

'terminated' is the second definition.
(I know that terminated can be written as ended)

(Other definitions for ended that I've seen before include "Brought to a close" , "'Our revels now are . . . . .' (The Tempest)" , "Having come to a conclusion" , "Finished, terminated" , "died" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
