Plagiarism is the use of another person’s thoughts or words as though they were your own, without permission, credit, or acknowledgment, or due to the failure to cite sources properly. Plagiarism can take diverse forms, from literal copying to paraphrasing the work of another. In order to properly judge whether an author has plagiarized, we emphasize the following possible situations:

1. An author can literally copy another author’s work, by copying word by word, in whole or in part, without permission, acknowledging or citing the original source. This practice can be identified through comparing the original source and the manuscript/work who suspected of plagiarism.

2. Substantial copying implies for an author to reproduce a substantial part of another author, without permission, acknowledgme,nt or citation. The substantial term can be understood both in terms of quality and quantity, being often used in the context of Intellectual property. Quality refers to the relative value of the copied text in proportion to the work as a whole.

3. Paraphrasing involves taking ideas, words, or phrases from a source and crafting them into new sentences within the writing. This practice becomes unethical when the author does not properly cite or does not acknowledge the original work/author. This form of plagiarism is the more difficult form to be identified.
