Tips

usage
Built from 针对 ("to aim at, address") + the abstract-noun suffix ("-ness"). The fixed phrase 针对性 ("with targeted nature") is the everyday way to say "targeted" or "focused" as a modifier. Don't say "针对" — that's ungrammatical.
register
Frequent in business, education, and policy contexts: 针对性培训 (targeted training), 针对性 (highly focused), 缺乏针对性 (lacks focus).
