I have read great journal.

I have read the article "A vaccine is joyful news - but am I really ready to go back to the world?" written by Emma Brockes. I am very impressed with it. She said exactly what I'd like to say! See following phrase in the article.

“I want to be around people who don’t want me to speak,” a friend wrote to me the other day by text – we don’t talk on the phone; it requires too much effort – and I understood precisely what she meant.

I mean we were over-connected each other. There was no time to stop and think about ourself. We had to do something or meet someone endlessly without any time to look back. We believed that busy life was an indicator of success. Corona-19 is obviously bad news, but it gives us chances to look back.

Corrections

I have read a great journalarticle.

"Article" (or "opinion piece") is a better choice of word than "journal" here. "Journal" usually refers to a book, within which we have multiple "entries".

SeI quote the following phrase infrom the article.

“I want to be around people who don’t want me to speak,” a friend wrote to me the other day by text – we don’t talk on the phone; it requires too much effort – and I understood precisely what she meant.

This quote would ordinarily be denoted in some way, such as by indentation.

Starting a sentence with "I mean" is informal. In this case, it doesn't tie in well with the quote.

I have read a great journalarticle.

First, it should be "I have read [a] great article". Beyond this, using title case or sentence case in titles is a matter of preference and style. See https://news.google.com for many examples of news articles using sentence case in titles.

It's worth noting the article uses sentence case in the title. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2020/nov/27/vaccine-news-world-year-normal-life "A vaccine is joyful news – but am I really ready to go back to the world?"

Thanks! It's exactly what I intend.

I hHave rRead ga Great journal.Article

In English, the first letter of all nouns, verbs, adverbs, adjectives, etc. is capitalized in a title.

“I have” is often written/said as “I’ve”.

For some reason, I feel like this would sound more natural if it said, “I’ve Just Read a Really Great Article”, but what you have is still correct.

This would normally be part of the sentence above, but I think that the program split it.

I hHave rRead ga Great journal.Article

I Have Read a Great Article.

The word "journal" is okay, too.

In English, the first letter of a word is capitalized when it is the name of something or someone (for example "Aiden" or the store "Olive Young"), or when the words are used in a title (for example "The Lion King" or "I Have Read a Great Journal") because a title is just like a name.

Words are not always capitalized, though. Nouns (people, places, or things) are capitalized the most. Verbs, adverbs, adjectives, etc. are not capitalized unless they are in a title or name.

Thank you for pointing out my error! I normally write "in a title", I must have just forgotten this time. I just fixed it!

Wow, now I know when I use "breaks". And learned a new word "self-reflect". Thanks!
