I was taught that "aim to do something" was wrong if that was the word the teacher used , whereas "aim at doing something" was correct.
If you read this thread you will see clear statements that you cannot always use "aim to" and "aim at" interchangeably. For example see posts 4, 15 and As it says in post 2 elroy said:.
They're aiming to train is no different from They aim to train as far as the use of the infinitive is concerned. I think there are huge differences in dialect, hence all the seemingly contradictory comments. Andygc - you said that you're happy with the second example below. I am not. I have been persuaded it is correct in some American English but it sounds wrong to my English English ear. I prefer the weapon reading of aim at.
Secondly, it is worth pointing out that you have introduced a further complication - your second and third examples are passive. Whilst this works for aim at , it doesn't work for aim to.
Andygc - Your third example should in fact be This policy aims to eliminate poverty. There is no reason to make it passive, and it does not work. Does it sound better now? First, I didn't introduce any complications. Examples from earlier in the thread : I aim to enhance my theoretical lectures with visual aids.
By using illustrations in class, I aim to enhance my theoretical lectures with visual aids. Does this work? Your third example should in fact be This policy aims to eliminate poverty. After reading all your contributions, am I right if I sum it up this way: Aim to do something But Be aimed at doing something Or once again I didn't get it?! K Dictionaries Ltd is a company based in Tel Aviv that specialises in providing translations.
We cannot tell if an Israeli source is a reliable source of idiomatic English. There's certainly nothing ungrammatical about "He aims at finishing tomorrow", but the discussion here has been about idiomatic usage, and there are plenty of posts that suggest that most of the native English speaker would find "He aims at finishing tomorrow" unacceptable. Try reading the details on the web page you linked to, which acknowledges the source, and which I quoted verbatim.
There are two such acknowledgements on that page. Particularly when you are telling native English speakers what is right or wrong in their own language.

A target market is a group of people with some shared characteristics that a company has identified as potential customers for its products.
Identifying the target market informs the decision-making process as a company designs, packages, and markets its product. A target market may be broadly categorized by age range, location, income, and lifestyle.
Many other demographics may be considered. Their stage of life, their hobbies, interests, and careers, all may be considered. Few products today are designed to appeal to absolutely everyone. Part of the success of selling a good or service is knowing to whom it will appeal and who will ultimately buy it. Its user base can grow over time through additional marketing, advertising, and word of mouth. That's why businesses spend a lot of time and money to define their initial target markets, and why they follow through with special offers, social media campaigns, and specialized advertising.
Dividing a target market into various segments is as simple as dividing the population into groups that can be measured by key characteristics. These include gender, age, income level, race, education, religion, marital status, and geographic location. Consumers with the same demographics tend to value the same products and services, which is why narrowing down the segments is one of the most important factors to determine target markets. For example, people who fall into a higher income bracket may be more likely to buy specialty coffee from Starbucks instead of Dunkin' Donuts.
The parent companies of both of these brands need to know that in order to decide where to locate their stores and where to stock their products. A business may have more than one target market—a primary target market, which is the main focus, and a secondary target market, which is not as large but still has growth potential.
Toy commercials are targeted directly to children. Their parents are the secondary market. Identifying the target market is an essential part of a product development plan, along with manufacturing, distribution, price, and promotion planning.
The target market determines significant factors about the product itself.
