Capitalization of "yo".

So when you're writing a sentence, would you use "yo" or "Yo"? ex: Mi mama y yo... or: Mi mama y Yo... I don't really get which one I should use.

"Yo" is never capitalized unless it's the first word of a sentence or the first word in the title of a book or something similar.

People also capitalize "yo" when placing them in conjugation charts. You don't capitalize "yo" as it is not a proper noun. In English it is called a pronoun. "Yo" stands for "I" while "I" is always capitalized in English "yo" is not in Spanish. Unless first word of sentence or in the title of a book, magazine, movie, etc.

To answer your question use the first one: Mi mama y yo ...
