iPhone Does Not Capitalize "trump"- Try It!
08-10-2016 | self

Posted on 08/10/2016 7:46:47 AM PDT by brucedickinson

This morning I was texting a friend and I went to type "trump" and Siri did not offer to capitalize it for me. I find that interesting. It is funny to see what the liberals at apple find necessary to capitalize. I usually switch their suggestions off.

I actually joined Freerepublic today in order to bring this up. I just keep getting madder every day. If you're like me, when texting, you keep "muslim", "islam" and a host of other suggestions lower case.

It’s a verb. Get over yourself.

You know “trump” is also a verb, right?

"Trump" is also a verb. As a matter of fact, I expect it has been a verb far longer than Donald Trump has been a "thing."

It is also a noun. It is an abbreviation for "trumpet."

As "When the last trump sounds."

Yeah....right. But the word trump has other meanings that trumps just a name.

That’s because ‘trump’ is also a common word and that is what they (Apple) will say.

The reason “Clinton” is capitalized is that is a formal noun for the word “lying bitch.”

Welcome.

Prepare to be hazed.

Also, good post.

Be sure to use moslem. It is an insult to them.

You can change that in Settings or go through the excruciating task of using your Caps key.

I'm no fan of Apple (or their pervert,Maoist CEO) but I'm inclined to agree.

Hard to say. “Trump” is also a noun and a verb that shouldn’t be capitalized.

Goofball. It’s a verb and an adjective.

You haven't gotten off to a very good start.Just FYI...this is the kind of thing a "progressive" whackjob would sign up to do.I'm not saying you're a whackjob but...

My advice...if you're for real (rather than a "progressive") hang around her for a while and just read.Don't post.Learn how things work here first

To all who say it’s a verb, three options are offered. Not unusually, one of the three is capitalized and one isn’t. For example, if you type, ‘may,’ you can choose between ‘may,’ and ‘May’.

Here’s another one. On Android, there is no option that capitalizes, ‘Bible.’ Type koran, however, and the capitalized option pops right up.
