: How do you convey nonverbal utterances? Like when you get irritated and say "tch" for example. I'm looking to do this in a 3rd person narrative context.
: How to name characters of unspecific nationality and race? I am writing a generic story. I have a setting that is not tied to a specific region on earth, though the story certainly does occur

Block D
You capitalize proper names. The reason 'Block' is capitalized is because you are referring to a specific block. 'The block' would not be capitalized, because - while you are referring to a particular block - you are not naming it. Similarly, if you were to say 'the D blocks,' that too would not be capitalized. While referring to specific blocks, you are not specifying which D block you are referring to.
