I definitely come across this in writing. Okay so let's let's take a look at the first note. We usually use the word Internet with a 'the' and it is always capitalized. Okay in English, when there is only one of something in existence it should be capitalized. Yeah at the moment even though different countries have the Internet it's supposed to be all connected so it's only supposed to be one Internet so that's the reason Internet is actually capitalized. So I will see students in writing they definitely will forget to capitalize it and we usually use it with a 'the' too. So we always say 'The Internet ' with a big 'I.' With an uppercase ' I. ' Okay good let's look at the first example here. With the advent of the Internet people have had information at their fingertips. Remember the advent means the beginning when that first started to happen. If you have information at your fingertips you know it means you can get it right away. But they always like to use this one about the internet because you actually will be doing some typing on a keyboard. Okay all right all right this is another thing that's important to note. Remember when other words substitute for the Internet such as net or the web then then they follow the same rule. Okay so if you're using the word web to mean the Internet you have to use a 'the' with it and also capitalize it . But of course if a web has a another meaning like spider web or a web and mitt or something. No there's no capital. It doesn't get capitalized and the same thing with the net. I mean if you're talking about a basketball net or a fishing net it doesn't get capitalized. But if you say the Net meaning the Internet, you use a 'the' and the end must be uppercase. It must be a capital 'N." Okay so so in this situation they follow the same rule. Okay let's look at two examples. Nowadays most people use the Net on a daily basis so you know people mostly use the Internet every day. Okay. Again is the 'the' with a capital 'N. ' Number two. Most libraries have the Web available on their computers so people can access it. They can get to it All right again the Web and we use a capital 'W" Okay it's pretty simple. Just remember that rule just follow it, So Internet's always capitalized we mostly use a ' the' with it. And we follow the same rule when the Web and the Net substitute for it. Thank you for your time. Bye.
