Use of Capitals in Spanish

Question

I need clarification regarding titles in a poster or informal work. I bought posters for the Days of the Week and the Months of the year in Spanish. "Días de la Semana" and "Meses del Año" were capitalized. I would have expected only "Día" to be capitalized. I also downloaded "Tarro de Galletas" I would have written "Tarro de galletas". What is the correct way? Thank you, CZMarquez

Answer 1

Hi, days of the week and the months of the year are common names, and shouldn't be capitalized:

lunes, martes, miércoles...

enero, febrero, marzo...

"tarro de galletas" shouldn't be capitalized neither.

Thank you, Luis. :) - rac1, Nov 1, 2016
