Worthy of being aimed at; capable of being aimed; designed or suited for aiming.
From French 'aimable' (amiable/lovable) via Old French 'aimer' (to love), ultimately from Latin 'amare.' In English, the word took on a more technical sense related to aim and targeting rather than emotional warmth.
This word has an identity crisis—in French it means charming and lovable, but in English it switched to meaning 'able to be aimed at.' It's a perfect example of how the same word can lead completely different lives in different languages!
