Grammar posts and the annoyance of "I"
From as far back as I can remember I never saw the major point to capitalizing the I's. It is a truly good thing that Microsoft Office does it all for me because otherwise I would most likely forget for sure. The rule is whenever an I is alone than it is supposed to be capitalized.

The question that I have is...why does an "I" need to be capitalized? We grew up doing it. Who wrote that rule? I can tell ya. They look better??
ReplyDelete"I" is capitalized because it is basically a proper noun, like a name that you use to refer to yourself.
