It’s an anti-signal trying to lower the writing’s formalness without actually casualizing the language, usually a quick shortcut for those who compose coherent sentences instinctively and would otherwise need to spend mental energy to go out of their way to not write like that.
- i5heu 2y agoI am German, we write all nouns capitalized. If I write English I often need to fix some nouns that I have written subconsciously capitalized. So I think it would be equally acceptable for me to just leave them in?
