I'm confused. 緒 is a word for end and beginning. But how do I know if it's end and not beginning and vise versa? This is japanese btw.

Vice versa is an adverbial phrase, which means that it plays the role of an adverb. It is commonly used with the conjunctions “and” and “or.” You can also use it with “not” when you want to say “not the other way around.”

Is this the answer you wanted?

if not then sorry

It means beginning in Chinese, but I don't know about Japanese.
