Goaleal

Goaleal: adjective. Pertaining to a goal or goals. In Aristotelian terms, when something is called goaleal, it is an end in itself, e.g. happiness. When something is only worth pursuing as a means, it is called meanial (not to be confused with the word 'menial,' though there are some commonalities between the two terms). We can thus efficiently say what it took Aristotle five years to say in the Nicomachean Ethics, i.e. that bridle-making is meanial to the goaleal art of horse-riding.
