Why There is Uppercase and Lowercase Alphabet?

The use of both uppercase and lowercase letters in writing provides structure, clarity, and visual appeal to written language. It helps facilitate communication, distinguish proper nouns, and enhance readability, ensuring that written text is clear, coherent, and understandable to readers.
 
The use of uppercase and lowercase alphabets in written language serves several purposes, including improved readability, differentiation, and emphasis.

Why is it called Uppercase and Lowercase?

The terms "uppercase" and "lowercase" originated from the early days of printing, specifically from the use of moveable type in the printing press. In the printing process, individual metal blocks or type pieces with raised letters were arranged to form words and sentences.

The terms "upper case" and "lower case" refer to the physical cases or compartments used to store these metal-type pieces. Printers organized their type collections in trays or cases with separate compartments for the different letters. The larger, capital letters were stored in the upper case, which was positioned above the lower case that held the smaller, lowercase letters.

The uppercase letters were less frequently used in comparison to the more common lowercase letters, hence their placement in the uppercase. The lowercase letters were used more frequently in everyday writing and were stored in the lowercase for easy access.
