"limit" in the mathematical sense isn't "jimte"; that's "bound". A function is 
not necessarily bounded by its limit. For instance, sin(x)/x has a limit of 0 
as x goes to infinity, but takes values both above and below 0.

For "boundary", I'd say "pilka" or "skapi". An unbounded set can have a 
boundary.
