eastern等方位名词什么时候小写什么什么时候大写，再举个例子谢谢

Question

如题所述

Answer 1

大写或小写 eastern， western 这类形容词 （这些单词不是名词）可以用这个规律：
- 形容方向用小写
- 形容地理用大写
比如：

American visitors to Asia often find Eastern Culture quite different from their own.
There are many scenic sites in Western Canada.
Corner Brook, Newfoundland, is in the north-eastern part of Canada.
The book was found in the southern corner of the room.
It is thought that Western civilization began around 400 AD.
In the evening, the western sky glows with the setting sun.
希望对你有帮助。

Answer 2

在句首大写

作为专有名词的一部分时要大写，例如“西太平洋” “Western Pacific”
在句子里作普通的定语时不用大写，例如说“中国西部怎么怎么样” “... in western half of China”
“西方国家” “western contries”
作标题都要大写

Answer 3
