Godd Morning Ladies!
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.
Yes, in formal writing, "Dear Brothers and Sisters" should be capitalized because it is a salutation. However, in casual writing, it is acceptable to write "dear brothers and sisters" in lowercase.
Yes, the word "Everyone" should be capitalized in "Dear Everyone" as it is a formal salutation.
The proper salutation when writing to a judge is "Dear Judge [Last Name]" or "Your Honor."
Dear ms
Dear Sirs and Madam:
"Mam" is not a word in English. The word you are thinking of is "Ma'am," which is short for "Madam." In the U.S. we use "Ma'am" primarily in speech. When you are talking to a lady, it is polite to use "Ma'am," especially in the South of the U.S. In writing a letter, "Madam" is formal and polite. If you are writing to a woman who is in an official position (e.g., a government official), you could start a letter with "Dear Madam." If you are writing to someone in a professional position and you are not sure if it is a man or a woman, you can say "Dear Sir or Madam." If you are addressing a group of people, the salutation is: Ladies: Gentlemen: Ladies and/or Gentlemen: (The word "Dear" is dropped.)
Yes, "Dear Friends and Family" should be capitalized because it is a proper noun and the beginning of a salutation.
When writing a recommendation letter, you should use the salutation "Dear Recipient's Name" to address the person you are recommending.
Dear Commander: Type your answer here...
The salutation for two or more women is typically "Mesdames" in French or "Ladies" in English. In a more formal context, you might also use "Dear Ladies" in correspondence. The choice of salutation can depend on the level of formality and the relationship between the individuals.
