【适用英语】英语写做大写字母规则
东亚西文情境英语和您分享
英语写做中一定碰着字母大小写（CAPITAL LETTERS），那是一个细节问题，此中有许多规定。
阅读 How to Speak and Write Correctly 一书时，我发现做者做了较好的回纳总结，固然谈不上是包含所有情状的完全手册，但根本上涵盖了英语写做中常见的字母大小写规则：
句子第一个字母要大写：
“Time flies.” “My dear friend.”
间接引语应以大写字母起头：
Dewey said, “Fire, when you are ready.”
间接疑问句：
Let me ask you, “How old are you?”
诗句：
Breathes there a man with soul so dead?
带数字序列的从句：
The witness asserts: (1) That he saw the man attacked; (2) That he saw him fall; (3) That he saw his assailant flee.
文章的题目和章节名称要全数大写：
CHAPTER VIII –RULES FOR USE OF CAPITALS
册本名称中，名词、代词、描述词、副词都应该大写：
Johnson’s Lives of the Poets
罗马数用大写字母表达：
I II III V X L C D and M mean 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 50, 100, 500 and 1000 respectively.
姓名、地名等专属名词以大写字母开头：
Jones, Johnson, Caesar, England, Pacific, China, Beijing. 像river那种通俗名词用在特定情况中也要用大写，好比Mississippi River. 此外，像north, south, west, east描述一个地域的南北区域时，也要大写，好比：The North fight against the South. 当专属名词和通俗名词通过连字符号相联时，只需合成词的第一个字母大写：Sunday-school, Post-hometric.
从专属名词衍生出来的词要大写，包罗党派名称，宗教部分，思惟门户等：
American, Irish, Christianize. Republican, Democrat, Catholic, Free Thinkers.
荣誉称号：
President Obama, Chairman Mao, Governor.
学位缩写、大学名称：
LL. D., M.a., B.S., Harvard University, Manhattan College, etc.
专属名词前的亲属称唤也应大写：
Father Abraham, Mother Eddy, Brother John, Uncle Jacob, Aunt Eliza.
基督教中与神有关的单词要大写首字母，常规写做中一般不会碰着：
Father, God, Lord, Creator, Holy One, His work, The work of Him, Old Testment, Holy Writ, Water of Life, Hope of men, Help of Christians, etc.
描述汗青上严重事务的短语用大写首字母，以示区别：
The Revolution, The Civil War, The Middle Age, The Age of Iron, etc.
礼拜、月份、季节、年份名称利用大写首字母：
Monday, March, Autumn.
人称代词 I 永久用大写，插进性的语气感慨词应大写：
Ah! I pitied him.
摘用拟人化写法时，无生命的对象利用大写字母加以表达：
The starry Night shook the dews from her wings.
