Explanation
Answer: C - Let’s go to uncle Bill’s restaurant for dinner. A title of kinship must be capitalized when used with a proper name or in place of a name. Here, “uncle” must be capitalized because it is used as part of a name. Answer A is not the correct choice because “father” is used as a generic term and not as part of a name or in place of a name. Answer B is not the correct choice because “sister” is used as part of a name. Answer D is not the correct choice because “sister” is used as a generic term and not used as part of or in place of a name.
