I really tried to get this without asking for help.

if e[0].isupper == False:

print ("True")
I am sure in the first , third and fifth choices should be true.
Right now, I am just testing the first letter of each word.
There's a difference between e[0].isupper which refers to the method
itself, and e[0].isupper() which then calls that method. Call the
method, and you should be good to go.

That works.
Thanks
Also, instead of:
if e[0].isupper() == False:
if e[0].isupper() == True:
use:
if not e[0].isupper():
if e[0].isupper():
It's clearer and reads better.
