Capitalization

Usually, when we write documents, the headings use what we call title caps.

This is also true for much of the text in a UI.

Capitalization rules are complex, but here are a few tips for how to get it right:

  • Always capitalize the first and last words
  • Capitalize ALL other words except:
  • Do not capitalize articles (a, an, the)
  • Do not capitalize coordinate conjunctions (and, but, for, nor, or)
  • Do not capitalize prepositions (of, to, in, for, on, with, as, by, at, from)
  • Do not capitalize to in infinitive phrases (How to Install Awesome Product)

I can't claim to be an English language expert, but making a lot of mistakes in Hebrew and hearing a lot of mistakes in English gets me thinking. And thinking in my world translates into writing, which in this case means sharing some of my ideas.
