Would you say "It is the starting point of sth"?
Do you often use the expression "starting point"?

For example, it is the starting point of his new journey. Is it correct?

What are the replacements for it?

Thank you so much!

Answer

'Starting point' tends to refer to a place rather than a time. We would understand the 'start' of the journey as when you start, and the 'starting point' as where you start out from.

Answer

I don't hear this expression often however it is used and it does make sense. :)

You can also just say "It is the start of his new journey." Omitting the word 'point'.
When I hear 'starting point' I think of a race or a game.

You can say things like "Today marks the start/beginning of his journey."
"This is where it all begins."

Hope this helps!

Answer

starting point = beginning
