Why “noncapitalized” is a great word
Not written with an uppercase letter. From the English prefix non- (meaning "not") + the past participle capitalized (from the verb capitalize, meaning to write with an uppercase letter). Unlike "lowercase," which precisely denotes the smaller form of a letter, or "uncapitalized," which can carry a whisper of error or omission, *noncapitalized* is a sterile, functional descriptor for any text existing without the elevation of majuscules. It is the visual quiet of a username in a login field, the uniform march of body text after an opening paragraph break, and the deliberate, democratic plainness of a poet who refuses a proper noun—a rejection of hierarchy inscribed in the very shape of the letters.
