what is plagiarism?
This could be defined as an act of plagiarizing" and plagiarizing as a verb precisely means to steal and pass off the ideas or words of another as one's own without giving credit to the owner of such initiative or idea.

Hence this issue of plagiarism over the years has brought many to the loss of tangible assets like money and plagiarized properties, as every author, initiator or even an innovator of any idea or concept has every secluded right to seeing that his or her innovation is not duplicated by any one without appropriate authorization by the author or the rightful owner of such concept or idea.
Basically according to some analysis excavated from bowdoin.edu there are emphatically four common types of plagiarism which are viz:
*Direct plagiarism
*Self plagiarism
*Mosaic plagiarism
*Accidental plagiarism
direct plagiarism means word for word transcription or use of a section of someone else’s work, without attribution and without quotation marks. This is still purnishable by law as it's a theft of intellectual property.

Mosaic Plagiarism,occurres when a student borrows phrases from a source without using quotation marks, or finds synonyms for the author’s language while keeping to the same general structure and meaning of the original

Accidental plagiarism occurs when a person neglects to cite their sources, or misquotes their sources, or unintentionally paraphrases a source by using similar words, groups of words, and/or sentence structure without attribution.

Self plagiarism could be seen as Self-plagiarism occurs when a student submits his or own previous work, or mixes parts of previous works, without permission from all professors involved.

Finally, it gives no credibility to any person having his/her intellectual property being stolen by any one, because it's a great infringement that is purnishable by law in all regions of the world.
My regards my mentor for bringing me into the limelight of plagiarism as I have not given my self to such research. It's really educative.

You're very right my friend. This is an act which we should all stay away from in order to protect ourselves and others. I think you should include ways which we can avoid plagiarism to your post. Thanks for sharing
