Question

Carefully read the following sentence: “Gone With The Wind by Margaret Mitchell is a sweeping epic about war and its effects that focuses on Scarlet O’Hara and her family.” Which word should not be capitalized according to the conventions of English language? [L.9-10.2.c] A. The B. Margaret C. Mitchell D. O’Hara

Answer 1

A. The
It wouldn't be any of the other three because they are all part of a name. Margaret is the first name of someone. Mitchell is the last name of someone. And O'Hara is also the last name of someone. First names and last names are always capitals.
