For dumb people, what does multipoint injection mean?

Thanks for the quick reply
i might say this slightly wrong but its basicly how the fuel gets into the engine

Yeah, it injects the fuel just above the intake valve right? But why is it called multi-point?

Multi-point fuel injection injects fuel into the intake port just upstream of the cylinder's intake valve, rather than at a central point within an intake manifold rather than at a central point within an intake manifold, referred to as Single Point Injection.
