    capital letter
    Message de mazigh07 posté le 23-02-2008 à 19:17:56

    Hello
    Do we write capital letters after the two dots? Eg, he said:They are ill.
    Thanks
    Regards

    Hi mazigh07,
    If a complete sentence follows the colon (two dots), you need a capital letter. If only a phrase or incomplete sentence follows the colon, you do not need to use a capital letter.

    But in your example, it would be written: He said, "They are ill."

    Hello,
    It depends on the kind of sentence:
    Lien Internet


    Here’s rule no. 1: Never look them in the eyes.
    Capital letter if it is a full sentence ,but some people prefer not to use capital letters.

    The first rule to remember is, Start each sentence with a capital letter.
    Same thing after a comma in the case of a quotation.
    See you

    hi!
    in general,after a colon,a capital letter is not needed because this statement
    completes or explaines what has been expressed in the first statement.
