Punctuation and Capitalization

In a title block, you should include the project title, drawing title, drawing number, scale, date of issue, and the name of the drafter or designer. This information helps to provide context and clarity about the drawing.

Immediate constituent analysis is a method for breaking down a sentence into smaller units to show the relationships between words, while phrase structure grammar is a formal system for describing the structure of sentences in terms of phrases and their constituent parts. Immediate constituent analysis focuses on hierarchical relationships within a sentence, while phrase structure grammar provides a set of rules for generating sentences in a language.

Yes, "Mount McKinley" should be capitalized because it is a proper noun referring to a specific mountain. "North America" should be capitalized when referring to the continent, but not when referring to compass directions.

Are you referring to "run-on sentences"? A run-on sentence is one where it is a compound sentence (two subjects and two predicates, which could function as two separate sentences) yet a separation is not made between them. Example: Original: I went to the store. I bought food there. Run-on: I went to the store and I bought food there. Correct: I went to the store, and I bought food there. You could also remove the subject from the second part and that would remove the need of a comma. Example: I went to the store and bought food there. In this case, the sentence is correct because the same subject is applied to both predicates. To say "I went to the store. Bought food there," would result in an incomplete sentence, one which when added to the first can not result in a run-on. (Note: In this case, you may not say "I went to the store, and bought food there," because then you are creating a separation between the two parts of the sentence resulting in the lack of an identified subject for the latter part.)

Yes, because it is a propernou

n. It should be Gree

n Police.

The word Internet is capitalized when referring to the global system of interconnected computer networks.

Many people would capitalize the word 'congratulations' or 'welcome' and follow it immediately with an exclamation point, and then begin a new sentence, capitalizing (of course) the first word of the new sentence. On the other hand, one might write, 'Congratulations on (for example) your amazing achievement.' Likewise, it might be appropriate to write, 'Welcome to (for example) the North Podunkville Community Association.' The formal rules of punctuation and grammar are usually relaxed in such circumstances. Otherwise, just follow the normal rules of punctuation and employ a comma whenever and wherever it is appropriate or necessary to do so.

The singular possessive form of Kerry is Kerry's.

Yes, you can add an apostrophe followed by an s ('s) to show ownership for singular nouns ending in s, such as "James's car." However, for plural nouns ending in s, you only add an apostrophe after the s, like in "the students' books."

Almost always, there is a comma following the word immediately preceding 'i.e.' and a comma following 'i.e.' as well. Note also that 'i.e.' is italicised. The term 'i.e.' is an abbreviation of the Latin 'id est,' which means 'that is.' (And please remember that i.e., and e.g. have different meanings.)

The most easternmost capital city on the mainland of Africa is Mogadishu. It is the capital of Somalia.

Either italicize the name of the paper or underline the name. Place the names of articles or sections of the newspaper in quotation marks.

You capitalize the first letter of the name of each book. If you write "First Samuel," for example, instead of "1 Samuel" or I Samuel, then you also capitalize the F of "First."

It depends on the context. You could use it when using "such" in place of "for example", but it would not be mandatory. An example is: "I like sweet foods, such as chocolate and biscuits." However, the sentence functions equally well without the comma. You would not need it in the following context: "I think the loss of rainforests is such a waste."

A codicil is a legal document used to make changes or additions to an existing will without rewriting the entire will. It must meet the same legal requirements as a will and typically needs to be signed and witnessed.

The word "apostrophe" comes from Greek, where it originally meant "turning away." It is derived from the Greek words "apo" (away) and "strophe" (turning).

Capitalize titles in writing and grammar when they come before a person's name, as in "President Lincoln." However, do not capitalize titles when they are used generically, like "the president announced a new policy."

Numbers below 10 should be spelled out.

Numerals are used for numbers 10 and above.

Exception: Ages and sports scores are written in numerals.

Examples:

Maria is 3 years old.

Grace won $7000.

This will depend how the word "please" is used. Most sentences are unlikely to need a comma after the word, e.g. ""Please may I have a chocolate?" or "Please get me that book." However, a cmma could be used in some instances, e.g. "If you please, would you get me that book?"

The word maybe can be used to open a sentence. The fear instilled in you by a well-intentioned but perhaps too directive teacher was that in using the word maybe at the start of the sentence you might commit a fragment. After a sentence, the tag "Maybe so" is a fragment appropriate for colloquial speech but not formal writing. When maybe stands for "It may be that," you can certainly use it to start a sentence as in "Maybe I will." If I've not answered your question fully, perhaps you could give an example of what you mean.

I'm not sure exactly of your meaning but if you're writing a book and one of the characters asks a question, then you'd say something like

John then asked, "Where does the train go from?"

But if the charcacter is quoting someone else, then it would be

Jim said that John had asked where the train went from.

The cooks' recipes. The apostrophe goes after the S.
