RE: Improve your Writing (Capitalisation Examples)

in #writing7 years ago

Mr. Dragonslayer, you have touched a very sensitive topic. Most people these days do not know when and where to use capitals, most even are not aware of the reasons why we need to use capitals.

A few year back, I used to be a trainer, and I often noticed that my trainees would take notes in the SMS lingo, what would turn into wt, and how would turn into hu. It was a complete third-degree torture for me to see them slay a beautiful language.

I come from a background where using an ampersand instead of ‘and ’ was frowned upon and in most cases, a few marks were deducted if we used it in exams.

I am happy that you take time and write about stuff that nobody thinks it is relevant today.
