Examples

.

I finished the work.

.

Let us finish that now.

.

The day came to an end.

?

When will you finish?

.

Everything has an end.

is transitive: somebody finishes something, so it needs an object. When the thing ends of its own accord you want , with the -- suffix that removes the doer: , not . That pair is the single most useful habit to build early, because the same split runs through and , and i, and dozens more. The noun and the adverb fine, meaning at last, come free.
