<<Are "uh", "er" and "um" words?>>

um, yeah.

<um, yeah. >

The should your "um", there, begin with a capital letter?

If you're going to play that game, Pos, since when can a verb be preceded by the definite article? ;)

Since when can you recognise a typo when it jumps out at you screaming?

Of course I can recognize a typo. But how do you know that Pete didn't simply mistype as well? (It's quite possible that it was intentional, but that's not the point.)

Kef, note the "should" here:

<<Then should your "um", there, begin with a capital letter? >>

It's a modal auxilary.
