Other forms: destinations
Destination can describe where you are going, like a traveler whose destination is Paris, or a place that is known for a particular purpose, such as a hip new music club that’s a destination for fans of indie rock.
The noun destination comes from the Latin word destinare, meaning «determine, appoint, choose, make firm or fast.» If you choose a destination, that’s where you intend to end up, the «finish line» or goal that you keep in mind, like a friend’s house that is the destination of a walk that might be interrupted a number of times, as you stop in stores along the way and pause to talk to the people you meet.
