prospective
의미: Expected or likely to happen in the future, or likely to become a particular thing.
Prospective describes people or things that are expected or anticipated rather than actual. 'Prospective buyers,' 'prospective students,' and 'prospective employees' are people who might become buyers, students, or employees but have not yet done so. In research, a 'prospective study' follows subjects forward in time, as opposed to a retrospective study. The word carries an anticipatory, forward-looking quality and is standard in professional and academic writing.
