My son is learning about proper nouns and he said that a proper noun is specific thing and a common noun isn't. He said an Ocean is a common noun and the Pacific is a proper noun.

I look him dead in the eye and say, "What a Pacific example you just gave"

Did you know that stalin never capitalised the first letter of a new sentence or a proper noun?

It's because he disliked capitalism.
