Which sentence demonstrates correct capitalization of proper nouns?

• A. I visited paris, France last summer.
• B. I visited Paris, France last summer.
• C. i visited Paris, France last summer.
• D. I visited Paris, france last summer.

Answer: (B)

Capitalization rules for proper nouns require names of specific places to start with a capital letter. In this sentence, the place Paris and the country France are proper nouns and should be capitalized. The pronoun I is always capitalized, even mid-sentence. When listing a city and its country, a comma is placed between them. So the correct version is I visited Paris, France last summer, with Paris and France capitalized and the comma after Paris. The other options fail because they lowercase Paris or France, lowercase the pronoun I, or misplace the comma.
