Pytanie o WIELKA BRYTANIA
- Please explain why 'utopia' is written in a capital letter in the main example we can find in the Oxford Dictionary for the entry 'utopia' -
‘a romantic vision of Utopia’. I certainly miss something about that ''Utopia''.
- Does 'in a bad light' only collocates with 'to show'?
What about 'to put', like in 'His superficial answer puts (instead of 'shows') him in a bad light.'?
Thanks a lot. :)

The word utopia was made up as a name for a fictional country. All country names are proper nouns, so they get capital letters. Nowadays it is more common to treat it as a normal noun.
“Put someone in a bad light” certainly makes sense to me.
