English term or phrase: Target
Hvordan oversetter dere "target"?

Har sett at "målet" har blitt brukt før, men jeg synes det er en veldig dårlig oversettelse?

Det er snakk om en person.
Det kan være en mistenkt, men stort sett passer det ikke å oversette med det.
Stort sett er det snakk om en person som overvåkes eller skal arresteres.

Eksempel: "The target is approaching the vehicle."

Jeg pleier å unngå ordet, men det er ikke alltid mulig.
Noen ganger bruker jeg rett og slett "han".

Explanation:
Hvis det er snakk om profesjonelle aktører som politi eller militære, er både "mål" og "objekt" gode oversettelser. Andre kodeord kan også brukes (eksempelvis "tango"), men da begynner det å bli veldig organisasjonsspesifikt.
