capitalization

Capitalization refers to writing the first letter of a word as an uppercase letter, often used to indicate proper nouns (like names of people, places, or organizations), the beginning of sentences, or specific titles. It helps clarify meaning, show importance, or differentiate between common and specific entities. Proper use of capitalization improves readability and conveys professionalism in written communication. For example, writing "john" becomes "John" when capitalized if it's a person's name. Following standard rules ensures your writing is clear, consistent, and easy to understand.
