1 When talking about a general direction, the word is often not capitalised, example: the north side of the house. 2  Place names are capitalised: East Sussex, West Virginia, South Africa.  In other cases, adjectives and nouns normally begin with small letters: Go south for three miles, then go east for another three miles.
Do not capitalize the words north, south, east, and west when they refer to directions, in that their meaning becomes generalized rather than site-specific. In general, do not capitalize commonly used words that have come to have specialized meaning, even though their origins are in words that are capitalized.o not capitalize the words north, south, east, and west when they refer to directions, in that their meaning becomes generalized rather than site-specific.
