thing, or idea. Proper nouns always begin with a capital letter, no matter where
they appear in a sentence. Examples include Mr. Cruz, Philippines, Amazon
River, and The Little Prince. These names refer to unique and specific people,
places, or things.

To easily identify the difference, remember that common nouns are general,
while proper nouns are specific and always capitalized. For example, city is
a common noun because it refers to any city, but New York is a proper noun
because it refers to a specific city. Similarly, teacher is a common noun, but
Ms. Reyes is a proper noun because it names a particular teacher.
