Should You Capitalize the First Letter After an Em Dash?


No matter how you use an em dash, whether it’s replacing other forms of punctuation, representing interruption in the text, or as part of a missing word, you do not capitalize the first letter following it. The only exception to this is if the following word is a proper noun, in which case you should capitalize them as normal.
