RULES: Tip of the Month:

Proper nouns are geographical locations such as continents, countries, states, cities, islands, bodies of water, parks, roadways, mountains, tourist attractions, museums, hospitals, airlines or cruise lines, sports teams, publications, and people's names and titles. In two word proper nouns, each name is spelled with a capital letter and the stress is on the second word; for example, Los Angeles is one of the largest cities in Southern California.
   An exception to this rule is the stress pattern for streets, which stresses the first word; for example, Smith Street vs. Park Avenue.
