> “it’s a tircha, as AAQ said.”

here is a good illustration. Give someone a kulah to hang on, and it is gladly accepted 🙂

Capitalization started somewhere in late Rome, before that everything was UPPERCASE like Hebrew. Then, almost every noun was (Germans still do that), first words, Divine names, etc. Overall, there seem to be two rules:
1) capitalization correlates w/ kavod. So, the weightier your Subject is, the more Capitals… Maybe you should be saying Hashem as The G-d, as, l’havdil, you are supposed to say The Queen (two Capitals)
2) Still, There are no exact Rules, They do change over time.
