Capitalization Mistakes: Check Shift, Caps Lock and Input Mode

Check the status first, and then practice connecting the first capitalization of sentences with abbreviations to avoid continuously inputting a series of incorrect capitalizations.

First check whether the errors are continuous

If the entire paragraph becomes uppercase, first check Caps Lock or the current input mode; if only one letter after the uppercase is also uppercase, check whether Shift is released in time; if Chinese suddenly changes to letters, check the language switch. These phenomena cannot all be solved by practicing letters again.

Test with the shortest string

Enter aAab in the local editor, followed by an uppercase abbreviation and a common word. Observe the actual output of each step to confirm the system status. Some devices can configure Caps Lock as an input method switching key, so the key name itself cannot fully describe the current behavior.

Practice the combined movements slowly

Capitalizing the beginning of a sentence can practice the connection of "one uppercase, two lowercase, and one space". Capital abbreviations are handled separately, don't forget to restore the state in subsequent ordinary words. Keeping the action clear is more effective than reworking an entire sentence just to save one operation.

Today’s practice and inspection

Make up three short sentences including name pronouns and English abbreviations. Type slowly and check the capitalization. The recording error indicates that the state has not been switched back, or the release is not timely at a certain moment. Next time, I will only adjust it for the corresponding problems. There is no need to learn all the letters from scratch.
