I think you mean 'point of view'--

point of view
–noun
1. a specified or stated manner of consideration or appraisal; standpoint: from the point of view of a doctor.
2. an opinion, attitude, or judgment: He refuses to change his point of view in the matter.
3. the position of the narrator in relation to the story, as indicated by the narrator's outlook from which the events are depicted and by the attitude toward the characters.

Thanks, Mr. MM, but I really am talking about " point over view". Is there such a word in English? If so, what does it mean? Very Happy

Thanks a lot.

Hi Rosalisa

I think you may mean point overview, written together as indicated.

This could be a summary of the singular points/themes in a meeting, discussion, article or presentation collected together. It could be at the beginning of a text to work as a sort of content index or at the end as a conclusion.

There also exists floating-point overview this refers to IT though.

I think you mean as I state it.

cheers stew.t.
