Non terminating decimals simply never end (definition of non terminating).

Examples of non terminating decimals are those that have a bar on the top or those that go off the screen of a calculator with ... following.

1.34 ends as it doesn't fit any of the example criteria above.

So no, it cannot be classified as a non terminating decimal
