"A Loint of Paw" is a vignette by American writer Isaac Asimov, first published in The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction in August 1957. It was reprinted in the 1968 collection Asimov's Mysteries and the 1986 collection The Best Science Fiction of Isaac Asimov. The title of the story is a play on the words "a point of law", which alludes to fact that the punchline of the story is a play on the words of an old saw. Asimov's author's note states that he considers "a play on words the noblest form of wit."

  • Cache-Cash (titre original : A Loint of Paw) est une nouvelle de science-fiction d'Isaac Asimov, parue pour la première fois en août 1957 dans The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction. Le titre est humoristique : l'expression « A Loint of Paw » ne signifie rien (le mot « loint » n'existe pas et « to paw » signifie « donner un coup de patte »). Il s'agit en fait d'une contrepèterie, le titre devant se lire « A Point of Law » (« un point de droit » / « un cas de jurisprudence »). Le titre en français a tenté de restituer le titre sous forme de jeu de mot. (fr)

Il titolo originale del racconto è un gioco di parole sull'espressione anglosassone "a point of law" (detta anche "question of law"), che indica una domanda a cui si deve dare risposta interpretando la legge.
