Usage notes
- Use traguardo for a milestone or hard-won result; obiettivo is the neutral word for a planned target.
- Very common with raggiungere: raggiungere un traguardo. Less natural with fare or ottenere in many contexts.
- For literal sports contexts, traguardo often means the finish line; outside sports it is usually figurative.
