/əˈstɛnsəbl ˈpɜːpəs/ – Phrase
Definition: mục đích bề ngoài, mục đích theo suy đoán.
A more thorough explanation: The legal English definition of the term “ostensible purpose” refers to a stated or apparent reason for an action or decision that may not be the true or actual reason behind it. It implies that the purpose presented is not the real motive or intention, but rather a facade or cover for the actual underlying purpose.
Example: The ostensible purpose of the contract was to provide consulting services, but in reality, it was a cover for money laundering activities.
