Preposition
Hi
What preposition is most preferred in the blank below:
"Sorry-we don't have a menu. Just point blank something on my apron."
I have a confusion between to and out.
Please help me out.
The above sentence was said by a waiter(who was wearing a dirty apron) to a customer.
Thanks
Prajwal

Hi,
More than one preposition is possible, but I'd say 'to' is the best choice.

Hi,
It's largely just idiomatic.
But here's my general feeling.
'Point to' - show clearly and directly
eg the teacher pointed to the student that he wanted to answer the question
