Prefix with point

Answer:

MID

Hint:

Think of a term used in navigation or sports that describes the central part of something, often paired with a word meaning location or position.

Explanation:

The clue "Prefix with point" is a straightforward definition where "prefix" means a word part added to the start. "Mid" fits because it’s a common prefix (like in "midpoint") that goes before "point." The wordplay is simple—just combining "mid" and "point" to show how the prefix works in real words. No tricks here, just a direct hint at a familiar word part.
