To determine how to write the first month of the second half of the year according to the given rule, consider the English alphabet and alternate capitalization starting from 'B'. According to the rule:
- Lowercase letters are: b, d, f, h, j, l, n, p, r, t, v, x, z
- Capitalize all other letters.
The first month of the second half of the year is "July". Applying the rule:
- J: Capitalized since it’s not in the lowercase list.
- u: Lowercase since 'u' is not explicitly capitalized according to the rule.
- l: Lowercase since 'l' is in the list of lowercase letters.
- y: Capitalized since it’s not in the lowercase list.
Therefore, the word "July" should be transformed to jUly.
