I believe it would be similar to mom and dad. If you said, my Mom went to the shopping center, you are using the word mom as her name, but if you're referring to who she is... as being a mother, I don't believe you would capitalize it and I think that follows to brother and sisters.
Only when you're using it as a replacement for a name. Like my Mom or my Dad went to. And I don't know if that would follow for what you're using brothers and sisters for.
Just a guess, but I think that is how that works.
Dear Esteemed Colleagues
Capitalize only the first letter of the first word of your phrases of salutation and conclusion. i.e. My dear Josephine, Very truly yours,
Yes, querido/a is a salutation that varies, depending on the sex of the person being addressed.
Only at the beginning of a sentence ---- And at the beginning of a letter always capitalize dear
Formal salutations are always followed by a colon. (Dear Sir Only in informatal writing do you use a comma. (Dear Sue,)
Dear Esteemed Colleagues
You would normally capitalize nouns in the salutation, Dear Residents: (but this is not a significant aspect of the letter and is often ignored). If you use a longer salutation, such as "My dear Neighbors," the word dear would not be capitalized.
Capitalize only the first letter of the first word of your phrases of salutation and conclusion. i.e. My dear Josephine, Very truly yours,
Dear Mr. President is a salutation of a business letter. The salutation goes at the beginning, thus that's how you got Dear.
dear your honor
Yes.
No, you do not need to capitalize "dear" in a cover letter. In a salutation, it is customary to capitalize the first word and any proper nouns, but "dear" is not typically considered a proper noun. So, you would write "Dear Hiring Manager" or "Dear Ms. Smith" with a capital letter for the first word and any proper nouns, but just "dear" on its own should be lowercase.
salutation
It is not recommended that a writer use "Dear Gentlemen's" in a salutation. "Dear gentlemen's" is referring to the gentlemen's object, not the men themselves. Try using "Dear gentlemen" instead.
Dear, or hello
Dear Mr./Dear Ms. followed by their surname.
Salutation in a letter is the initial greeting to your reader and should be addressed accordingly. Depending on who the letter is being addressed to, a salutation can began with Dear, Dear Sir or Madam, To Whom It May Concern, or Hello.
