achieve
UK: əˈtʃiːv | US: əˈtʃiːv
vt. to successfully complete or attain a goal through effort
vt. to gain as a result of action or effort (e.g., fame, recognition)
The word "achieve" traces back to Old French achever (to finish, accomplish), derived from the phrase a chief (to a head/to completion). The root chever (to end) evolved from Vulgar Latin capāre, linked to Latin caput (head), metaphorically implying "bringing to a conclusion." Over time, the meaning shifted from literal completion to attaining success through effort.
