Today begin September 21, I will be making my achievement 3 post on Content Etiquette , from the post of @cryptokannon on content etiquette, by the end of this achievement post I will understand the content etiquette of the steemit platform.

Let me start my answering the questions asked be @cryptokannon on content etiquette of steemit.

What is Plagiarism?

Plagiarism is the representation of another author's language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions as one's own original work. In educational contexts, there are differing definitions of plagiarism depending on the institution.Source

In my own words;
plagiarism, I would say is when you imitating and presents exact work,ideas or content of another person.
It is an illegal act which can attracts punishment, if you plagiarise in steemit platform there are punishment too, so you have to stay away from it.

What are the different types of plagiarism?

Mosaic plagiarism: in this type of plagiarism it involves restating another persons work just so that it may look original or look real and different from the main author.

Direct plagiarism: here, the plagarist copies a content just as the original owner(author) wrote it without filtering a word and without also referencing the author.

Global plagiarism
Global plagiarism occurs when you copy another person's text from his or her publication without making reference to them.

Self-plagiarism:
Copy or repeating your own post in many communities is a crime. People do this because they want to get rewarded multiple times.

Accidental plagiarism: sometimes it skips our mind that we need to add the source to pictures, quotes gotten from the internet. This is also a type of plagiarism in steemit.
