Paraphrasing – Today’s Highlight
🍙 Plagiarism → copying someone’s work.
● Copy and don’t give credit/ not citing the source.
● Translating the whole document without checking.
🍙
E.g: I write an essay in Indonesia and then translate it to English using translator websites.
Paraphrase → giving/ talking/ writing something in different words
● Use synonyms and antonyms.
● Nominalization → nouns that are created from adjectives (words that describe nouns) or
verbs (action words). Changing the form of the word -Dua Sensei.
● Active and passive voice → changing the place of the subject and object.
E.g.:
Dua sensei is teaching the students. Active
The students are being taught by Dua sensei. Passive
● Turning complicated sentences into simple sentences, and vice versa.
