§Grammar and usage

Usage: in English, capital letters are used for proper nouns, days, months, languages, nationalities and the pronoun 'I', but not for the seasons, so write 'Monday', 'June', 'Hindi' and 'Indian' but 'winter'.

English में proper nouns, दिनों, महीनों, भाषाओं, राष्ट्रीयताओं और pronoun 'I' के लिए capital letters का प्रयोग होता है, पर ऋतुओं के लिए नहीं, इसलिए 'Monday', 'June', 'Hindi' और 'Indian' लिखें पर 'winter' लिखें।
