    The Common Noun
    Recognize a common noun when you see one.
    Nouns name people, places, and things. Every noun can further be classified as common or proper. A common noun names general items. things are common nouns. places are common nouns. people are common nouns. The important thing to remember is that common nouns are general names. Thus, they are not capitalized unless they begin a sentence or are part of a title. Proper nouns , those that name specific things, do require capitalization. Notice the difference in the chart below: Common Noun Proper Noun coffee shop
    waiter
    jeans
    sandwich
    chair
    arena
    country

    Simon

    Roll-O-Rocker Amway Arena Australia Captain Richard Orsini Here are some sample sentences: Although there are five other chairs Roll-O-Rocker Chairs = common noun; Roll-O-Rocker = proper noun.

    ML03: Capitalization of Headings and Titles Comments have come in from members and many different countries (Denmark, France, Germany, Great Britain, India, Israel) proving that capitalization is an ongoing problem for many of us. Many thanks to all contributors! The following summarizes the replies to the question of "capitalization of headings and titles" in the mailing list tcf-gen during the last months. A member has written: "We think that there is a 'right' way to do things, and my memory says that this 'right' way varies between the USA and Britain." She suggests different possibilities:
    • Capitals For Everything In The Title Capitals only for Nouns in the Title ('German method') Capitals only for the first word in the title
    And finally, she puts the following two questions:
    • which is the 'correct' way in Britain and the USA which possibility is best for readability (for non-native speakers)
    Common practice, according to members from an internationally operating company in Germany, used to be for many years: Capitalize in Heading and Title:
    • First and last word Nouns, pronouns, verbs, adverbs, adjectives

    Capitalization Rules
    WHEN ARE CAPITALS APPROPRIATE, and when are they not appropriate? If you haven't noticed, capitalization varies somewhat from publication to publication. But there are some universal rules about capitalization which almost every publication, whether it be a newspaper or magazine or novel, generally follow without exception. The following list will attempt to point out these generally accepted capitalization rules:
  • Always capitalize the first word of every sentence. Capitalize the first word of every direct quotation.
    • John said, "The first thing I want to do is eat." "William is my friend," he said, "but John is not." ("but" is not capitalized because it doesn't start a new sentence.) "We eat at six," he said. "Late comers will not be fed." ("Late" is capitalized because it starts a new sentence.)
    Always capitalize the first word and the last word of every title. The words in between are also capitalized unless they are prepositions (of, from, to, for, etc.), short connecting words, the
