Initiatir or Originator

i was reading again and i came across this part where it says
BLRM.. "badiu samawati wal ardh"... as part of a verse in surah 2:117. Now the translation is what concerns me the most since i am not an arabic speaker and it was translated "initiator of the heaven and earth"...
now i jumped for a minute because there is also another part in the scripture that is translated "initiator of the heaven and the earth" and this is "fatiri samawati wal ardh"..
so how come two different arabic words are translated the same...
Now i googled it and came up with another translation for "badiu samawati wal ardh"... which is "originator or the heavens and the earth."..
which for me for some reason feels right. because as God is the originator.. because we have all come from him.. he created us, established us..
At the same time he is "fatiri samawati wal ardh" which is the "initiator of the heavens and the earth" because to create us we have to be initiated... if u catch my drift.. God conceptualised our creation and initiated us and established us... Our originins are from Him.. He is the one who know fully well where we come from..
just a note to put down
