When do you capitalize pronouns?

Pronouns are generally not capitalized in English, with a few exceptions:

1. When a pronoun is used as the first word of a sentence:

* I went to the store.

* We are going to the beach.

2. When a pronoun is part of a formal title:

* He is the President of the United States.

* She is the Queen of England.

3. When a pronoun is used in a direct address:

* You need to listen to me.

* Sir, may I have your attention?

4. When a pronoun is used to refer to a deity:

* He is the Almighty.

* She is the Mother of God.

5. In some specific poetic forms, pronouns can be capitalized for emphasis or stylistic effect.

It's important to note that capitalization of pronouns is not always consistent across different writing styles and contexts.
