Rules For Capitalization Questions Medium
No, the word 'continent' should not be capitalized unless it is used as part of a proper noun or at the beginning of a sentence. In general, common nouns like 'continent' are not capitalized unless they are part of a specific name or title. For example, 'North America' and 'South America' are capitalized because they are proper nouns referring to specific continents. However, when used in a general sense, such as "There are seven continents in the world," the word 'continent' should be written in lowercase.
