The correct spelling of the phrase "wert point man" is actually "lead point man" or "lead scout." The confusion may stem from the use of the archaic word "wert," which means "were" in modern English. The correct pronunciation of "lead point man" is /liːd pɔɪnt mæn/, with the stress on the first syllable of "point." It refers to the person who leads a group, providing direction and identifying potential dangers or obstacles.
