Question

Which is the right way to capitalize the words in this sentence?

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is C: Yesterday, the Star Tribune published an article about pigs living in southern France, near the Mediterranean Sea.

Explanation:

Yesterday – it must be capitalized, as it is the first word of the sentence.

Star Tribune – it’s a proper noun, that is, a full name of newspapers, so it must be capitalized.

southern France – southern is a descriptive term we use to denote a direction or a position. It is not a proper name, so it should not be capitalized. However, France is a proper noun and we should write it with a capital "F"  because it is the name of a specific country.
