What Is Title Case?
Title case is a capitalization style used for titles and headings in which major words are capitalized, while minor words such as short articles, conjunctions, and prepositions are usually lowercase unless they come first or last. Exact rules vary between style guides such as AP and Chicago.
Title Case vs. Sentence Case
Sentence case capitalizes only the first word and proper nouns, as in a normal sentence. Example — title case: How to Calculate a Budget; sentence case: How to calculate a budget.
