French term or phrase: pointer
Hello,

"A partir de ce point partent deux arcs. L’un correspond au cas « true » de la commande et va pointer sur le point suivant (i.e. le point précédant l’appel du test d’égalité) et être étiqueté par le prédicat « [true] removeFirst(y+,f,f+) » où « f » représente par convention la variable « f » de l’état (du point/nœud) de départ de l’arc, et « f+ », et « y+ » représentent par convention les variables « f » et « y » de l’état de destination de l’arc.

...on the following point

Any suggestions?
Thank you :)

to point to
Explanation:
the arc is pointing to a certain point

It's repeating the root, but aside from that, this is what I understand it means
