Capitalization rules

Examples: Peyton Manning, Super Bowl, Manassas Rule 1 Capitalize the first letter of a proper noun, a name for a person, place, thing, or event. Examples: Peyton Manning, Super Bowl, Manassas

Rule 2 Do capitalize all significant words in titles (books, movies, podcasts, etc.). Always capitalize the first and last words. DO NOT capitalize articles (a, an, the), prepositions (as, at, of, on, for, in) or conjunctions (and, but, or) that contain four letters or fewer (unless they are the first or last word). Examples: Of Mice and Men, Freak the Mighty, The Lightening Thief

Rule 3 Capitalize the first letter of a sentence, even in a quotation. Examples: The dog slept. Our waiter asked, “How can I help you?”

Rule 4 Capitalize the names of relatives when used with the person’s name or alone as the name you call that person. Examples: Make sure to thank Aunt Betty for the nice gift she sent you. Can we please go to the park, Dad? Hint: substitute the person’s name for the relationship. If you can’t use their name, don’t capitalize it. Example: Don’t tell your dad about the surprise birthday party we’re throwing him. You wouldn’t say “Don’t tell your Michael…” so it’s not capitalized

Rule 5 Capitalize a title that comes before a name or when addressing someone directly. Examples: The best teacher at Parkside is Mr. Shore What should I do, Doctor?

Rule 6 Capitalize countries, nationalities, and languages. Examples: Spain Spanish American English

Caps for capitalization Put your cap on if you think the word should be capitalized.
