오늘 집에 돌아 온 후/귀가 후에 / 아래 문장을 읽고, 이전에 몰랐던 몇 가지 사실을 알게 되었습니다. 그것은 내게 매우 도움이 되었습니다..
이 글을 좀 더 쉽게 읽기 위해 이 문장을 내 일기에 옮겨 적었습니다.
언제던지 내가 다시 읽고 싶을 때 쉽게 읽기 위해서이지요.
그리고 또한 영어를 배우는 다른 친구들에게도 도움이 될지도 모르기 때문입니다.
그렇기를 바랍니다. ^__^!

==(May 27th 2010 19:56 ) <How to improve your English writing in 5 minutes>===
• Today after I came home I read the following article, then I found out about something that I didn`t know before. .(I got to know something that I didn`t know before.)
• It`s very helpful for me . In order to read more easily I included this article on my journal. (*If you say "I wrote this article", it means that you created its content. "Included" is better~)
• *I would like to read it whenever I would read again. And besides I feel maybe it could be helpful to any friends who are leaning English.I hope so.

Below is an excerpt from Michal's story, but it is purposefully written in an ugly way. Do you find this excerpt pleasant to read?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Today , I can understand the beatles very clearly.Each time I hear a Beatles song,I am delighted and proud becouse i have mademy childhood dream come true. I listen to many rock bands , all in English,and I listen every day ,sometimes forover seven hours a day.I ma constantly aware ofmy success with english because i cna understand the lyrics ofthe songs i listen to.and taht gives me pleasure and Satisfaction for many hours every day .

Now you can read the original version of the excerpt. It's the same text but it's much more pleasant to read, don't you think?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Today, I can understand The Beatles very clearly. Each time I hear a Beatles song, I am delighted and proud because I have made my childhood dream come true. I listen to many rock bands, all in English, and I listen every day, sometimes for over seven hours a day. I am constantly aware of my success with English because I can understand the lyrics of the songs I listen to. And that gives me pleasure and satisfaction for many hours every day.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are three kinds of typing errors in the ugly version:
1-wrong use of spaces (a missing space or an unnecessary space)
2-incorrect capitalization (lower case instead of upper case or upper case instead of lower case)
3-incorrect spelling

---<How to avoid writing in an ugly way>--
1-Be careful. Put spaces between words. Use proper capitalization: The first word in every sentence should start with a capital letter. So should every proper name (such as English and The Beatles).
2-"You" and "I". Remember that the word "I" is spelled "I", not "i", and the word "you" is spelled "you", not "u".
3-Put a space after every comma and every period; never before it.
--<The wrong way: >---------------------------------------------------------
I listen to many rock bands , all in English, and I listen every day ,sometimes for over seven hours a day . I am constantly aware of my success with English .
--<The right way: >--------------------------------------------------------------
I listen to many rock bands, all in English, and I listen every day, sometimes for over seven hours a day. I am constantly aware of my success with English.

4-Use a spellchecker. With a spellchecker, you can easily avoid mistakes like because, ma (instead of am), can (instead of can), and that (instead of that).
