Proper Nouns: Names of People, Places, and Things

Proper nouns are special nouns that specify particular people, animals, or places. They always start with a capital letter and help identify specific entities. Examples include names of individuals such as Sami, Carol, or Elliot, as well as places like the National Orthodox School. Recognizing and capitalizing proper nouns distinguishes them from common nouns like boys, girls, days, and months.
