A question about grammar.

Is it correct to put non (without a space or dash) in front of a word that is traditionally capitalized and leave it capitalized? e.g. nonAmericans.

EDIT: Grammar with an a that is.

IIRC a hyphen is needed Deslock 🙂

Yeah, I think you need to use a hyphen.

My high level of smartness enabled me to determine that Mr. Hosein's assertion is non-erroneous.

Thanks. I just wanted to make sure. 343 results came up on google for nonAmerican 😕 I guess I should tell all of them that nonAmerican isn't proper ..
