Question

Which of the following is the correct way to write a title according to MLA guidelines?

Answer 1

Answer: D) Gone with the Wind.

Explanation: In MLA format the rules of capitalization of titles are strict, according to those rules, we have to capitalize the first and last word of the title and also all the important words (nouns, verbs, adverbs, adjectives, pronouns and subordinating conjunctions) also we don't capitalize the prepositions (with, between, of, on, by, etc), articles (the, a, an), coordinating conjunctions (but, and, or, yet, etc) and the word "to" when is an infinitive of a verb. So in the given title the correct capitalization is Gone with the Wind, because "with" is a preposition and "the" is an article.
