Ok my brain stopped working a half hour ago and even with earplugs the freaking cat is snoring so loud I can't hear myself think! I need some grammar help.
I know religions like Buddhist, Hindu, and Presbyterian etc. start with a capital, but what about the words catholic and protestant as in “She was a catholic schoolgirl.” I’ve found it used with and without a capital and I’m getting confused.
Also what about his or her majesty? Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth would be capitalized, but what about “She was fairly certain his majesty would not be pleased.” I’ve also found this used both ways so which is it? Capitalized or no?
Please help. I'm going to have a drink! Thanks
