What are words that start with punct meaning point?

There aren't any words in common English usage that start with "punct" meaning "point."

The prefix "punct-" usually relates to piercing or pricking rather than "point" in the sense of a location or a dot. Here are some examples:

* Puncture: To make a hole in something, usually with a sharp object.

* Punctual: Being on time, adhering to a schedule. (This word is related to the concept of "points" on a clock face, but it doesn't start with "punct-".)

* Punctilious: Paying careful attention to detail and formality.

If you are thinking of a specific word or concept related to "point" that you think starts with "punct," please provide more context.
