Morphology
The phrase is compositionally built from 'blue' (a color) + 'point' (here meaning the colored extremities) + 'Siamese' (the cat breed), so a learner who knows these words can infer it denotes a Siamese cat with blue-coloured points. The structure follows a common adjectival + modifier + noun pattern (e.g., 'seal-point Siamese'), making the meaning transparent across languages and predictable from the constituents.
Etymology
Blue point Siamese is named for its colour pattern: the word point means the darker parts on the ears, face, paws and tail, and blue describes their soft grey-blue shade, so the name tells you what the cat looks like.
