Analytical Thesis Statements. Adapted from Writing Analytically by Rosenwasser and Stephen. To analyze something is to ask what that something means. An analytical essay answers how something does what it does or why it is as it is. Therefore, a thesis statement in an analysis paper should be answering a HOW or WHY. question.
Guidelines for Using Acronyms. 1  Capitalize acronyms, and do not use periods. When acronyms become integrated into the language as common nouns (for example, laser, radar, or scuba), they are no longer capitalized.  When using an acronym the first time, spell the phrase out and follow it with the acronym in parentheses.
The first rule is to always capitalize proper nouns, which are the names of specific nouns. For example, the word 'university' is not capitalized, but if you name a specific one, like Harvard University, both words in the name are capitalized. The second rule states to capitalize words in the title. All main nouns in any title, be it a book, song, movie or magazine, needs to be capitalized. Remember, though, that the smaller words in a title should not be capitalized unless it is the first word in the title.
