Definition: Common nouns name any person, place, thing, or idea. They are not capitalized unless they come at the beginning of a sentence. Proper nouns are the names of specific people, places, things, or ideas. Proper nouns should always be capitalized.
| Common | Proper | |
|---|---|---|
| boy | ⇒ | James |
| river | ⇒ | Mississippi River |
| car | ⇒ | Ford |
| doctor | ⇒ | Doctor Jefferson |
| town | ⇒ | Rockledge |
| candy bar | ⇒ | Baby Ruth |
- Hint:
- Don't forget to capitalize all parts of proper nouns. Many people forget to capitalize words like river and county in proper nouns like Yellow River and Orange County.
