Punctuation and Capitalization

"Host" is not normally capitalized in a sentence, unless it means bread consecrated in a religious ceremony and therefore believed to have been transformed into the body of Christ.

The word "not" is typically not capitalized in a title unless it is the first word, a proper noun, or part of a hyphenated word.

Yes, in a formal letter, the word "dollars" should be capitalized if it refers to a specific currency amount. For example, "fifty Dollars."

The correct way to punctuate the phrase "students work" depends on the context. If it is a statement, then no punctuation is needed. If it is part of a sentence, appropriate punctuation should be added before or after the phrase based on the surrounding text.

The proper usage is "Lee's" as it indicates possession or belonging to Lee. So, the correct phrase would be "Lee's that" to show that something belongs to Lee.

If there is more than one Lee involved, the proper nominative plural is "Lees" and the genitive plural is "Lees'". "Lee's" would be proper for a singular genitive, as in "the attorney representing the Lee's heirs", when there is only one person named Lee who has heirs.

Traditionally, a colon for business letters and a comma for personal letters.

In most cases, section headings should be capitalized according to the rules of Title Case. This means that the first letter of each main word in the section title should be capitalized, while articles, coordinating conjunctions, and prepositions should typically remain lowercase. Note that some style guides may have variations on this rule.

No, "diabetes" is not capitalized unless it is the first word in a sentence or part of a proper noun.

In this context, the apostrophe is used incorrectly. "Carolina's" indicates possession or contraction (e.g., "Carolina's music"). To show plurality (referring to both North and South Carolina), the correct form is simply "Carolinas."

It depends actually, if quoting from the start of a sentence then yes; it read, "The little house was blue."

If starting in the middle of one, then no; however, "she claimed that blue made her sad."

For multiple parts add "..." in between the parts, so long as they don't flow. Ex:

The little house was blue. However, she claimed that blue made her sad. So after talking about it, we then painted the house red, she was happy.

The, "house was blue... blue made her sad... painted the house red... she was happy."

Its been awhile since English class, but that's how I remember it.

No. Capitalization only occurs at the beginning of a sentence or with a name of a piece of reading material like a book, a person or pet, or of a certain location. Just because "milking cow" is a noun does not entitle it to be capitalized.

In a title, you should capitalize all words except for articles (a, an, the), coordinating conjunctions (and, but, or, nor), and prepositions (in, on, to, with) unless they are the first or last word of the title. Therefore, you would capitalize "Your" in a title.

Yes, in mixed punctuation style, the complimentary close is followed by a colon.

At the start of a sentence or when it is used in the name of something, like in Southwest Airlines.

Yes, "State" should be capitalized in "State of Iowa" because it refers to the political entity of Iowa as a state within the United States.

The word "banker" should not be capitalized unless it is at the beginning of a sentence or part of a title.

In most cases, it is not necessary to capitalize the word "wants" in a title unless it is the first word or part of a proper noun. The general rule for capitalization in titles is to capitalize the first word, last word, and all major words in between.

no not nesersarily but you would call it an editing mark

Yes, the word "godly" should be capitalized when referring to the attributes or characteristics of a god or deity, such as in "godly power" or "godly wisdom." If used in a general sense to describe someone as devout or pious, it is typically not capitalized.

The base word for punctuation is "punctuate," which means to insert punctuation marks into a written text to improve clarity and meaning.

Yes, the word "Established" should be capitalized if it is part of a proper noun such as a business name or official title.

Scientific names of organisms are written in italics (or underlined if handwritten) and consist of two parts: the genus name capitalized and the species name in lowercase. For example, the scientific name for humans is Homo sapiens. The genus name is always capitalized, while the species name is always in lowercase.

No, "sister" is not capitalized in the middle of a sentence unless it is used as part of the name or title that is capitalized. For example, in "I have a younger sister," "sister" would not be capitalized.
