What is Title Case?

Title Case is a capitalization style where the first letter of most words is capitalized. Short prepositions, articles, and conjunctions (such as “a”, “of”, “and”, “the”) remain lowercase, unless they appear as the first or last word.

Title Case is used for book titles, movie names, article headings, blog post titles, chapter headings, and anywhere a formal, professional capitalization style is needed.
