How it works

Words are identified using Unicode-aware boundaries and their letters are transformed according to a selected title-case policy, often preserving short articles or prepositions unless they begin or end a title. Punctuation and apostrophes require policy-specific handling.

  • Title-case conventions differ by style guide rather than following one universal rule.

Worked example

A title with a long preposition
MLA lowercases "between", AP and Chicago capitalise it
Input
											war and peace between nations
Output
												Ap title: War and Peace Between Nations
Chicago title: War and Peace Between Nations
Mla title: War and Peace between Nations
Agree: no

When to use this

CMS headings, bibliographies, and interface previews apply title capitalization.

Edge cases

  • Apostrophes in names should not split every word mechanically.
  • Hyphenated compounds can need capitalization on both sides.
  • Acronyms such as API should not be lowercased as ordinary words.
