Choose the version of the sentence that correctly capitalizes the common nouns and the proper nouns.
a. patricia lives in melville, a suburb of fallontown.
b. patricia lives in melville, a suburb of fallontown.
c. patricia lives in melville, a suburb of fallontown.
d. patricia lives in melville, a suburb of fallontown.

D. Patricia lives in Melville, a suburb of Fallontown.

Explanation:

Common nouns are the names of a person, place or thing in the generalized form. Likewise, proper nouns are also the names of a particular person, place or thing. Proper nouns are always written with the capitalization of the first letter whereas not all common nouns are capitalized. Capitalization of a common noun should be used only when the word denotes a specific or particular proper noun.

Among the options given in the question, the words "Patricia", "Melville" and "Fallontown" are proper words so they are/ should be capitalized. Whereas, the word "suburb" is a common noun but does not represent a particular proper noun s it will not be capitalized.

Patricia is the name of a person thus capitalized. Melville and Fallontown are names of a particular place so they are also capitalized. Options A and C capitalizes the word "Suburb" which is wrong and option B did not capitalize the word "melville" which is also wrong. Thus making all the three options wrong.

The correct answer is option

D. Patricia lives in Melville, a suburb of Fallontown.
