All other cases

The rule other converters ignore

Title Case does not capitalise every word. Articles, conjunctions and short prepositions (a, an, the, of, and, in, on, to…) stay lowercase, except in first or last position. That is what separates The Lord of the Rings from the incorrect The Lord Of The Rings. Our converter applies the rule.

Which style guide?

Guides disagree on the details — AP capitalises prepositions of four letters or more, Chicago keeps most of them lowercase. Our list follows the common core they all agree on, which is safe for headlines, articles and page titles.

Frequently asked questions

Which words stay lowercase?

Articles (a, an, the), short conjunctions (and, but, or, nor) and prepositions under four letters (of, in, on, to, at, by, for). Always capitalised if they open or close the title.

Should I use it for a page title tag?

In English, yes — it is the norm for headlines and titles. In French or Spanish, capitalise only the first word.

Does it handle hyphenated words?

Yes, each part of a hyphenated word is treated separately.
