When referring to Memorial Day weekend, is it Memorial Day Weekend, or Memorial Day weekend? 
ex: "The days-long event was held over the Memorial Day weekend." 

Is there a standard protocol for referencing the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack? Is it necessary to list the year every time we write it? Or has it become mainstream enough that just saying "Jan. 6" is enough for people to get the point, much like 9/11.

The river: Dnieper, Dnipro, Dnepr, or Dnyapro?

When referring to junior college athletes, would it be juco or JUCO?

Greetings! Search yielded nothing on this so I wonder your stance on hyphens in a phrase like "encourage banks to participate in below market rate mortgage loan programs..." Two hyphens? one (where)? none? Thank you!

Should point of care be hyphenated in the phrase "point-of-care test?" Our staff disagrees on whether to hyphenate or not.

How would you write the term Waters of the United States? Waters of the United States, "Waters of the United States" or waters of the United States?

I have a question about a somewhat odd construction. I know inter and intra prefixes generally aren’t hyphenated. Is the following construction correct with hyphen, though?

“The product was moved on both intra- and interstate lines.”

Or would it be better to write it as “intrastate and interstate”?

Thank you!

When writing content for corporate LinkedIn account meaning short form postings, would we still follow AP style? 

How do we write it? multi-billion dollar or multibillion dollar drug 

I have looked many times for consistency on this. Do we choose the correct article (such as "a" or "an") based on the first letter of an acronym or initialism, or the word that the first letter represents? E.g., say that SMOHG stands for "save me O holy grammar," and we wrote, "I had an SMOHG moment." 1) Is "an" correct because of the "S" letter sound in S M O H G, or is it "a" because the first word  represents "save"? 2) Here's the tricky part. People sometimes informally pronounce the word as "smawg." Others just say S M O H G. Do we pick the article for SMOHG based on the informal pronunciation (smawg) or the beginning letter, S?  It's either "a" or "an" depending on how we decide. P.S. It happens a lot in internal business writing. Thanks. 

Hello! June is Pride Month or June is Pride month?

Hello. In the listing for prefixes, it says, "See separate listings for commonly used prefixes." However, I can't find the list of commonly used prefixes. Where is it located?

If our university often refers to areas as "West Campus," "East Campus," "North Campus" and "South Campus," should those be capitalized like regions? 

Hi,
I'm curious about two conflicting answers you gave to a similar question. When referring to a graduating class, should the "c" in class be uppercase or lower case? Here are the two questions from your archive:

QUESTION from Canton, Conn., on April 21, 2015

Hi - WNW dictionary lowercases "sub-Saharan Africa," and AP stories seem to follow suit. Why does the lowercase "sub-Saharan Africa" differ from widely recognized regions like Southeast Asia? We often write about this alongside "Middle East and North Africa," so the lowercase "sub" stands out as odd. Thanks!

In sports coverage where its applicable, would you uppercase or lowercase heavyweight champion?

Hi. AP says no hyphen for “augmented reality” and “virtual reality” as an adjective, but what about “mixed reality”? Seeing recent AP stories with it hyphenated such as “a mixed-reality headset” so wanted to check.

Hi. I previously asked if it is "stockholding" or "stock holding," and "bondholding" or "bond holding" and received the answer “I'd make it stock-holding and bond-holding.” Can I please confirm that if you have to include “holding,” this is how you advise to cast it in noun form in constructions such as “unrealized losses on bond-holdings deteriorated”—and not “unrealized losses on bondholdings deteriorated” or “unrealized losses on bond holdings deteriorated”? 

I'm editing a freelancer's story and it says "...1 in 5 children are in peril." Isn't 1 singular here so should it be 1 in 5 children IS not ARE?

I have a question about punctuation in a phrase like "(above, right)" when used to identify the placement of a person in a photo. (In this case, the photo is above the caption, and the person being identified is on the right side of the photo.) Would you use a comma like I did above, or would you leave the comma out so that it reads "(above right)"? 

Is "waste" always a mass noun? Or is there a context in which it count be a countable noun?
For example: "Kidney damage can cause wastes and fluids to build up in your body" or "Kidney damage can cause waste and fluid to build up in your body"? 

With new guidance on G7 and G20 with no hyphenation, what would "G-8" or the other "G"s be? As there is not an official AP entry for G-8, one continues on to Webster's to see that it is hyphenated there. So to refer to the predecessor of the G7, would it be G-8 or G8?
