How does this expression eliminate digits and non-letter type symbols?

The regular expression /['^A-Z']/ means all symbols, excluding capital latin letters.

This solution seems to potentially fail with some characters from non-English languages. <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8334606/check-if-first-letter-of-word-is-a-capital-letter/39292247">https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8334606/check-if-first-letter-of-word-is-a-capital-letter/39292247</a>#39292247
