Details

In orthography and typography, letter case (or just case ) is the distinction between majuscule (capital or upper-case ) and minuscule (lower-case ) letters. The term originated with the shallow drawers called type cases still used to hold the movable type for letterpress printing. Most occidental languages (certainly those based on the Latin, Cyrillic, Greek and Armenian alphabets) use multiple letter-cases in their written form as an aid to clarity. Scripts using two separate cases are also called "bicameral scripts", while those with only one case are "unicase scripts". In English, capital letters are used as the first letter of a sentence, a proper noun, or a proper adjective, and for initials or abbreviations. The first-person pronoun "I" and the interjection "O" are also capitalized. Lower-case letters are normally used for all other purposes. There are however situations where further capitalization may be used to give added emphasis, for example in headings and titles or to pick out certain words (often using small capitals).
