No circumstances --- plagiarism is deceitful, as is having multiple YA accounts. . .

Under NO circumstances. Plagiarism (claiming someone else's work as your own) is by definition illegal.

Plagarism, by definition means:
to steal and pass off (the ideas or words of another) as one's own : use (another's production) without crediting the source
intransitive verb : to commit literary theft : present as new and original an idea or product derived from an existing source
Stealing is never right.

Never proper...will get you kicked out of school. Plagiarism is using someone else's work, thoughts, ideas, research withOUT giving them credit for it.

never. if u like the idea of an author and can't rephrase it into your own words (still giving the original author the credit), then you can quote the author and say where that part of the paper came from. if it's not your idea...just say where it came from, throw in some of your own thoughts are u're good to go. =)

Under NO circumstances.
You may quote a person's work, as long as you acknowledge the source material, but plagerism is theft, as you are presenting it as your own material and not the efforts of another.

None. If you wish to quote another author, you must obtain approval, site the quotation in your document and follow copy write laws.
