What is Plagiarism?

The plagiarism meaning comes from the Latin word 'plagiarius,' which means to kidnap. As the
plagiarism definition suggests, when someone uses the work of another artist without properly
citing the source or giving credit, then that will be an instance of plagiarism.
Plagiarism is the representation of another author's language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions as
one's own original work. Plagiarism is considered a violation of academic integrity and a breach
of journalistic ethics. Plagiarism is presenting someone else's work or ideas as your own, with or
without their consent, by incorporating it into your work without full acknowledgement.

"If you steal from one author it is plagiarism; if you steal from many it is research ." Wilson
Mizner

Plagiarism is the "Use or close imitation of the language and thoughts of another author and the
representation of them as one's own original work." 1

The meaning of plagiarism is both broader and deeper and may not be fully understood even
by many teachers.
Dictionary definitions link two concepts together: (1) using someone else's words, and (2)
passing thein off as one's own.
(WAME) defines plagiarism as the use of others’ published and unpublished ideas or words (or
other intellectual property) without attribution or permission, and presenting them as new and
original rather than derived from an existing source.
In other words, plagiarism is an act of fraud. It involves both stealing someone else's work and
lying about it afterward.
Many people think of plagiarism as copying another's work, or borrowing someone else's
original ideas.
Plagiarize means
. steal and pass off (Use other's ideas or words as yours)
.use another's production/piece of work without crediting the source
.theft
.present as new and original an idea or product derived from an existing Source.

What is the most Commnon Mistakes?

1.The Ghost Whiter The writer turns in another's work, word-for- word as his or her own.(
পুরান া ক ান া কেখা কেটা ক ান া ইনে ট্রন ক্স নিনিযায ক ই।
2.The Photocopy The writer copies significant portions of text straight from a single source,
without alteration.( বড় ক ান া কেখা কেন ক ান া পযারাগ্রাফ ক া ারূপ পনরবর্ত া নর চানেনয
কেওযা)

3.The Potuck Pacer The water toes to disguise slogans, by copying from several different
sources.(অন গুনো কেখা কেন এন টু ন নয এ টা র্ু কেখা তর্নর রা)

4.The Poor Disguise Although the writer has retained the essential content of the scarce he or
she has altered the paper's appearance slightly by changing ke, words.( অন গুনো কেখা কেন
এন টু ন নয এ টা র্ু কেখা তর্নর রা)

5.The Laboriof laziness The writer takes the time to paraphrase most of the paper from other
sources and make it all fit together instead of spending the same effort on original work.(
ক ান া কেখা নপ রার সিয Refference নেনর্ ভুনে োওযা ।

6.The Self-Stealer The writer "borrows generously from his or her previous work, volating
policies concerning the expectation of originality adopted by most a scenic istitutions.( ন নের
পুরান া কেখা আবার -নির্ীযবার চুনর রা)

7.The Forgotten Footnote The writer mentions an author's name for a source, but neglects to
include specific information on the location of the material referenced. This often masks other
forms of plagiarism by obscuring source locations(ন র্ানরর্
ত নবষনয আনরা কেখা। এই কেখাটট িূে
কপইনে া কেন র্ু এ টট ন র্ানরর্
ত কপইনে োন । ক াোও কেখন র ো বো ো নব া)

8.The Misinformer The writer provides inaccurate information regarding the sources, making it
impossible to find them(ন নের ি িনর্া সজ্ঞানযর্ রা)
9.The Too-Perfect Paraphrase" The writer properly cites a source, but neglects to put in
quotation marks text that has been copied word-for- word, or close to it.( িূে উৎসন নব ৃ র্ নর
কফো)

10.The Resourceful Citer The writer properly cites all sources, paraphrasing and using
quotations appropriately. The catch? The paper contains almost no original work! It is
sometimes difficult to spot this form of plagiarism because it looks like any other well-
researched document.( "োর চুনর ৃ র্ জেন স র্ান স্বী ৃ নর্ া কেওযা)
11.The Perfect Crime" Well, we all know it doesn't exist. In this case, the writer properly quotes
and cites sources in some places, but goes on to paraphrase other arguments from those
sources without citation.
What is the different forms of plagiarism?
1.Verbatim plagiarism (is when someone directly copies text from a source and pastes it into
their own research without properly citing the information. Even if they delete a couple of odd
words, if the majority of the text is the same, it is still verbatim plagiarism. This can be avoided
by quoting the original source with quotation marks and using an in-text citation.
2.Global plagiarism This is when the researcher uses someone else's work while passing it off
as their own - this can include having a friend or family member write their work for them, or
paying for someone else to write their work for them.
3.Self-Plagiarism: Sometimes authors use their own writings in two or several works without
citing the original work or referring to notes that in chronic phases leads to multiple
publications (duplication) in different resources.
4.Paraphrasing: "Paraphrasing the work of others by altering a few words and changing their
order(if we do not give due acknowledgement to the author whose work we are using.
5. Collusion:This can involve unauthorised collaboration between students, failure to attribute
assistance received, or failure to follow precisely regulations on group work projects.
6.Inaccurate Citation: It is important to cite correctly, according to the conventions of our
discipline.
Must indicate, using a footnote or an in-text reference, where a quoted passage comes from.
7. Failure to acknowledge assistance: You must clearly acknowledge all assistance which has
contributed to the production of our work, such as advice from fellow students, laboratory
technicians, and other external sources.
8.Auto Plagiarism: Submit work for assessment that you have already submitted either for your
current course or for another qualification of this, or any other, university. Identical pieces of
work submitted concurrently are considered to be auto-plagiarism.
9.Unintentional Plagiarism: Unawareness about citations value and/or forgetting citations are
examples for this type. The author's goal is not to break the intellectual properties law and the
mistake is not deliberate.
