I wouldn't consider them opposites. They talk about two different things with some conceptual overlap. A tunnel could have a DIn at each qa'rI', for instance. And that tunnel could have a DIn in the middle (like a T-intersection) and not at a qa'rI'.

qa'rI' (n) "end (of corridor, tunnel, conduit, jeffries tube, sewer,
road, bridge, long field, etc)"

Would you (yes *you*, you who are reading this), consider that DIn (n)
is the opposite of qa'rI' (n) ?

Because, seemingly/apparently, DIn (n) has to do *only* with enclosed
spaces, whereas qa'rI' (n) refers to open spaces as well.

I find transliteration disturbing
