Capital letters

We capitalise days of the week, months and festivals, but not

seasons. Names of people and places, including streets, planets,
continents and countries.

His birthday party is on Thursday.

It rains a lot in April and May, but the summer is very dry.
Bea Jankowski has lived on Church Street in Manchester for 20 years.

Words that come from the names of places – for example

languages, nationalities and adjectives that refer to people or things
from a country, region or city – are capitalised. We also capitalise
nouns and adjectives that come from the names of religions.

Some Canadians speak French.

Londoners eat a lot of Indian food.
Most Muslims fast during the day for Ramadan.

The names of organisations and usually the important words in

book and film titles are capitalised. When a person's job title goes
before their name, capitalise both. If the title is separate from their
name, capitalise only their name.

Salome Zourabichvili, the president of Georgia, is visiting President Alvi

tomorrow.
The chief executive officer lives in New York.

 Apostrophes

We use an apostrophe to show where there are missing letters in

contractions.

It's raining. (It's = It is)

She can't drive because she's broken her leg. (can't = cannot; she's = she
has)
I'd like a coffee, please. (I'd = I would)

** Note that it's is a contraction of it is or it has. Its is a possessive

form of the pronoun it.

The dog is chasing its tail.

Are you sure it's OK for me to ring you so early?

We also use an apostrophe with the letter s after a noun (normally

a person, animal or group) to show that the noun owns someone or
something.

Marie's mother is going to Hong Kong. (singular)

My cousin writes children's books. (plural)

When a plural noun ends in s, we put the apostrophe after the s (s').

This is a picture of my parents' house.

Our friends' new car is red. They just got it yesterday.

When a singular noun ends in s, we generally use 's.
