Do you capitalize south American jungle in a sentence?

You would capitalize "South American Jungle" in a sentence, but only if it's used as a proper noun.

Here's why:

* Proper noun: When referring to a specific, named region, it's treated as a proper noun. For example:

* "We took a trip to the Amazon Rainforest, a famous South American jungle."

* "The Amazon Basin is a vast South American jungle."

* Common noun: If used as a general term, it's not capitalized:

* "They studied the plants and animals found in the south American jungle. "

In short, capitalize it when you're referring to a specific named area, but not when you're using it as a general term.
