FRequently I capitalize the first two letters of a word instead of just the first one. IS there a clever,?

Question

sure-fire way to train yourself not to do that? THanks.

Answer 1

Take a butter knife and pop the left hand shift key off of the keyboard that way you have to think with every keystroke.
After a little while of using the right hand shift key you will have broken the habit.

Answer 2

Yes. You acquired the habit. You can break the habit. You consciously worked to capitalize the first two letters, so you must consciously work to capitalize only the first letter.

Are you also one of those people who does or used to put a circle over an i instead of putting a dot over the i? That's what middle schoolers do and then they find that they have developed a habit that's hard to break.

Just like you must be conscious of the way you talk, you must be conscious of the way you write. You are judged by both. Make sure you don't put yourself in the position to be judged as "stupid" just because you picked up a habit that at one time seemed cute or trendy.

But, we live and learn! Perhaps you are just now learning what is appropriate and what is not and you want to do something about it. You're still young, and silliness is cute when you are young. Enjoy being young. You'll only be young once.

Good luck to you!

Answer 3

No, it's just wrong.. Capitalize the first letter only by capitalizing both you seem uneducated to me.. Ha..ha..

It's just a bad habit and I guess there's really only one thing to do about it..try harder not to do it and after a while you will train yourself to stop doing that.

Answer 4

Yeah. Don't capitalize the first letter of the sentence. It's because of the shift key being held too long.

OR you could just use openoffice. They have a feature that automatically corrects that.

Answer 5

I must say that the problem is with your ID, you see that your ID is Dee Cee now these are two capital letters, if you change your ID to something different like 'e.g.' this may fix the problem, is may cause new problems but we will work on that one later.

Answer 6

HAHAHA! LOL! THIS IS FUNNY! HERE'S A STAR! I'VE NEVER HEARD JOKES LIKE THESE! I'M DEFINITLY GONNA SAVE THESE! AN OLD SHOE: When you rearrange the letters: HAD NO SOLE!

Answer 7

I do that sometimes. It's just because you are holding the shift key down too long. I tend to do it more often when I am holding the shift key with my left hand because I type faster with my right hand than my left. You just have to go back and fix it.

Answer 8

lol I never heard of that before. Now that you've noticed the problem, just correct yourself. In time, you'll get over it! =)

Answer 9

Make your self stop. Whenever you see yourself doing it erase it and type it over again. It's just practice.

Answer 10

bit weird. never hear of that b4. maybe not hold down caps?
