Naming things:  If a person, place, or thing has a specific name, that name should always be capitalized. If the thing is generic, and many things are called by the same name, we do NOT capitalize it.  PROPER NOUNS:  A particular person or place.  The exact name of an item (such as a brand)  COMMON NOUNS:  general things  things or items without an identity

Compound nouns  Sometimes, in order to be very specific, we use a compound noun, which is two or more words used to refer to the same item. MOST OF THE TIME, compound words are hyphenated.  seventy-two  (electronic-mail)  Freeze-dry  Brother-in-law  Seven-year-old  Blue green

Collective Nouns When we are referring to people, places, or things, we must use the correct form of the word so that people know how many items we mean.  Collective nouns: a new name for an entire group of something  Flock  Team  Herd  Family  Senate  Murder
