USAGE:

Русское существительное "цель", как и английское существительное aim имеет два значения. Цель в значении "намерение, замысел" соответствует только первому значению английского существительного aim 1., это же значение также соответствует английскому существительному purpose. Существительные aim 1. и purpose в ряде контекстов взаимозаменяемы: to achieve one's aim/purpose; the aim/purpose of the research; with the aim/purpose of doing smth Однако aim подчеркивает общую надежду, намерение, мысль о чем-либо, а значение purpose акцентируется на получении результата какой-либо деятельности
II [eɪm] v
1) целиться, прицеливаться

- aim straight
- aim at smth, smb
- aim a blow at smb
2) стремиться (к чему-либо), направлять усилия (на что-либо)

- aim at doing smth
- aim at gaining the prize
- aim at absolute power
- aim to attain better results
- aim at success
