==Capitalizing Hebrew Words== | |||
In general, the capitalization depends on whatever would be capitalized in English. | |||
# Rule 1: The first word of a sentence is always capitalized | |||
# Rule 2: A proper noun is capitalized. A proper noun is a name for an specific person, place, or organization. | |||
## For example, Shabbat is a proper noun just like Saturday would be and should be capitalized. However, a bracha should be lowercase just like a blessing is a noun and is lowercase, though, Birchot HaTorah would be capitalized for that matter. | |||
## Another example, is that the word 'rishonim' (Medeval commentators) shouldn't be capitalized, but Tosfot should be since it refers to a specific group of French rabbis living in the Twelfth century. | |||
