The Chinese word 目标 (mùbiāo) is composed of two characters: 目 (mù), meaning "eye", and 标 (biāo), meaning "target" or "goal". Together, these characters form the compound word 目标, which literally means "eye target" or "visual target". This term is used in Chinese to refer to a goal, objective, or target that one aims to achieve. It is often used in a metaphorical sense to refer to a person's aspirations or ambitions. For example, a student might set a 目标 to achieve a certain grade on an exam, or a company might set a 目标 to increase its sales by a certain percentage. The word 目标 is also used in military contexts to refer to a target that is being aimed at or fired upon.
