目標
もくひょう · mokuhyou · JLPT N3 · noun
objective
🎯👁️ 目標 = eye (目) + marker (標): what your eye aims at
目 means eye, and 標 means a sign or marker post; its 木 tree radical points to a wooden stake. A target is the marker your eye locks on to. The reading moku-hyou can be heard as mock-you: the target practically mocks you until you hit it.
