For me:

The end of the universe.

An unknown colour.

> For instance, some languages don't even have separate words for blue and green, though you might think it was fairly obvious that grass is a different colour from the sky.

Scots Gaelic does have separate words for blue and green, but they cover slightly different ranges than their English 'equivalent'.

But I don't see any new ones being invented - the spectrum, at least as human eyes currently see it, seems to be full - only named.

Ratter, do you mean the physical boundaries of the universe or the end of time?
