Paraphrasing and Quoting

You capitalize the first word when you quote a complete sentence.

One of the reasons to quote someone's words is to be more credible.

You don't need to use a comma (,) if the quotation comes before ''he said.''

You can use www.thesaurus.com to find the synonyms and / or antonyms of the words.

You need to put quotation marks (''...'') when you paraphrase a text.

Writing someone else's sentences without changing or putting them in quotation marks is called plagiarism.

You don't change the meaning of the text when you paraphrase.

If you use the exact same words of someone else's, it is called Quoting.

You don't need to change the words of the original text when you paraphrase.

You need to include a reference when you paraphrase.
