How do you change a sentence to prevent plagiarism?

Question

Is there a website that can help you "say a sentence another way"?

Answer 1

To avoid plagiarism, you need to give credit to the original work. Saying it in a different way is still plagiarism.

Answer 2

Plagiarism Changer

Answer 3

Changing a sentence doesn't prevent plagiarism! It is merely an attempt to hide it. It doesn't work. You have to present ideas that you wrote, not just copied.

Answer 4

Technically, plagiarism is not only taking a direct quote from another source, it's also taking ideas from another source.

The best way to avoid plagiarism is to give credit to your source - whether you change the quote or not.

Answer 5

no. you just figrure out how to rewrite the sentence or you can directly quote it and that you won't be plagiarism

Answer 6

Read the original work, then read another on the same subject. Then read another, and another, and another - until you actually LEARN something. Then, take what you have learned, and write your own sentences.

Answer 7

If the lines are so good, why not just refer to them with quotes and a citation in your bibliography? That's part of a good report... The report is not for you to figure out how to say everything good by yourself, don't forget... Part of the skills of a reporter is to be able to accurately report and represent the facts, and so if there is something that does an all-too-good job of that, don't be afraid to cite it in your article! :)

Answer 8

no, just use your brain!! and, just in case you dont know, if you use 3 or more words in a row from someone without quoting, it's plagiarism.

Answer 9

It helps if it is your original work.
