Default How turn off auto capitalization?

In Tools | AutoCorrect Options, but note that Word capitalizes the beginning
of a line only when it's the beginning of a paragraph, which it assumes is
the beginning of a sentence. If you're pressing Enter at the end of each
line, don't; just let Word wrap the lines naturally. If you need an
artificial break before the end of a paragraph, you can insert a line break
(Shift+Enter).

How do I turn off the way that Word auto capitalizes the first letter of a
new paragraph line?
