Cynosure

Cynosure

<sine-oh-sore>


Focus; heart; hub

Anything or anyone that attracts a lot of interest.

The clock tower is the cynosure of the town. People come from miles to see it.

Memory trick:
Cyno reminds of center

A landmark is a cynosure.



Used at work:
The demo will be the cynosure of the conference. Everyone will flock to it.
