PARAPHRASING

When you quote, you repeat or copy from a text or speech exactly as it was
written and indicate the original author. When you paraphrase, you restate
something in your own words while retaining the meaning and the order of the
original text.

Paraphrasing is sometimes confused with summarizing. When


you summarize, you provide a brief statement of the main ideas and most
important details in a text. In contrast, when you paraphrase, you do not
condense the text. Instead, you restate the entire text in your own words.

When you write you must use sources ethically, and that means giving proper
credit to avoid plagiarism, or taking another person’s words or ideas and
presenting them as your own. You must always credit your sources when you
quote or paraphrase with citations. A citation is a reference to an outside
source, including source information that is quoted or paraphrased.
