you can usually find a capital at the beginning of a sentence (Le train entre en gare) and of a proper noun (first name, city, country, planet…)
II. at the beginning of sentences :
you capitalise a/ the first letter of the first mot of a sentence, b/ the first word after an hyphen (un trait d’union -) or a colon (un deux-points 🙂 that expressed direct speech (ex : Elle m’a répondu : “ Je ne viendrai pas. “, c/ at the beginning of verses in classic poetry (ex : Maître Corbeau, sur un arbre perché…)
III. at the beginning of proper nouns :
you capitalise a/ the first letter of a first name or last name (Marianne Dumaret), nb : the preposition in compound names and the article in compound surnames don’t take a capital, ex : Jean de La Fontaine, Pierrot le Fou, b/ the first letter of titles (Madame la Comtesse, Votre Altesse), c/ the first letter of the names of locations, historical monuments or political institutions (la Loire, la Bastille, l’Assemblée nationale), nb : when a location has a compound noun, nouns take a capital but articles or prepositions don’t (Trouville-sur-Mer), d/ the first letter of the nouns of social and cultural institutions (la Sécurité sociale, l’Académie française), e/ the first letter of nouns expressing historical periods (les guerres de Religion, la Libération, la Renaissance)…
beto being elected would be huge for texas. as someone from there, lemme tell you, he’s someone the state sorely needs. texas is in desperate need of a democrat and Beto is our best bet. in recent polls, cruz was shown to be ahead, but not by much. cruz. cannot. win.
there are ways you can help! if you live in Texas, you can sign up to volunteer. you can volunteer to do things such as send texts, emails, knock on doors. typical campaign stuff.
if you don’t live in Texas, you can donate. you don’t have to live in the state to donate. donating is one of the best ways you can support him because it funds his campaign! as mentioned above, he doesn’t take PAC money. he is 100% grassroots campaign, funded by people, for people.
i’m going to reiterate this. any us citizen* can donate. any. doesn’t matter where you live in the united states. so, I urge. if you don’t live in texas, donate. the average donation amount is $35, but any amount will help.
*if you don’t live in the united states/aren’t a citizen, legally you cannot donate. i don’t make the rules guys.
if you can’t donate, please reblog this so others can see it. people can’t vote in midterms if they don’t know who their nominees are.
this midterm election is crucial. getting Beto into the senate is crucial. reblog or donate!

louis farrakhan called Jews termites yesterday and we will still see absolutely no meaningful condemnation of him from people like Linda Sarsour and other women’s march leadership – because leftists will never show us the same kind of solidarity they expect from us
