English Grammar
Basic Grammar -> Common Noun
| 1. | Common Noun : |
|---|---|
| In definition, it is completely opposite to a proper noun : it refers to a place, thing or person in general and not in specific sense. | |
| As those nouns are not specific, therefore the initial letter will be capitalized (unless of course, it is the first word of a sentence). | |
| For example: | |
| The nearest town from here is 32 miles away. | |
| I find it tough to understand why some people hate smokers. |
