めど

めど

"めど" means "target," "prospect," or "aim" in achieving a goal or resolving something.

Here, 'めど' refers to an 'outlook' or 'prospect,' indicating that there is a clear pathway or expectation for completion.

In this case, 'めど' means that there is a sense of resolution or accomplishment, sufficient to justify taking a pause.

Here, 'めど' implies 'direction' or 'feasibility,' and the sentence suggests that the idea does not have a clear plan or achievable outcome.
