  • noun. Movable rails which can be used to switch a train from one railway track to another.
  • noun. The two metal surfaces in a distributor which close or open to allow current to flow or not through the ignition coil. Each surface is called a point singular (there's usually a moving point which is pushed by the distributor cam and a fixed point which isn't), but they're made together in a unit and serviced or replaced that way and are hence normally called points plural.
  • verb. Third-person singular simple present indicative form of point.
