Capitalization is used within a sentence. Sentence case also describes the
standard capitalization of an English sentence, i.e., the first letter of the
sentence is capital letter, rest of all being lower case (unless requiring
capitalization for a specific reason, Example: Proper nouns etc.).

The first word in a sentence should be in capital letter.
Example: Primitive man made his first tools and weapons from bones and
stones or from wood.
Here in this starting word ''Primitive'' the letter started with ''P'' capital
letter.
The word "I" should always be in capital letter.
Example: What I fear is that if I were to meet Newton face
to face, I would fail to recognize him, so busy I am learning
about him!
Wherever ''I'' comes in the middle of the sentence it should be
in capital letter.
The names of people and pets are in capital letters.
Example: We met Patty and Lisa at the party.
Here Patty is a pet's name and Lisa is a person's name.
The names of geographical places, roads, places, and buildings should be in
capital letters.
Example: Columbia Hospital is on Central Avenue.
Here Columbia and Central Avenue are the names of places, and Hospital is the
