Definition von majuscule im Englisch Englisch wörterbuch

A capital letter, especially one used in ancient manuscripts

A capital letter; especially, one used in ancient manuscripts

uppercase; "capital A"; "great A"; "many medieval manuscripts are in majuscule script"

Uppercase, capital, or large letter in calligraphy, in contrast to the minuscule, lowercase, or small letter. All the letters in a majuscule script are contained between a single pair of real or theoretical horizontal lines. The earliest known Roman majuscule letters are in the style known as square capitals, distinguished by downstrokes that are heavier than upstrokes and by serifs (short strokes at right angles to the top and bottom of a letter). Square capitals were used mainly in inscriptions on Roman imperial monuments. Rustic capitals, used in books and official documents, formed a freer, more elliptical script. Roman cursive capitals, a running-hand script used for notes and letters, were a forerunner of the minuscule scripts that appeared later

one of the large alphabetic characters used as the first letter in writing or printing proper names and sometimes for emphasis; "printers once kept the type for capitals and for small letters in separate cases; capitals were kept in the upper half of the type case and so became known as upper-case letters"

{s} uppercase, capital (of a letter); in capital letters

Synonym for uppercase (See case )

{i} capital letter

of or relating to a style of writing characterized by somewhat rounded capital letters; 4th to 8th centuries
