Plagiarism:

---

"According to the Royal Spanish Academy, plagiarism is the action of copying in substance the works of others, giving them as their own." in high school I learned that plagiarism is stealing information from others for their own benefit such as copying the work of a colleague and delivering it as ours, if the teacher caught us committing plagiarism we were sanctioned and did not give us a note.

Plagiarism can be stricter even it is known that there are universities that expel their students if they catch them committing plagiarism or millionaire lawsuits by people who say they have been plagiarized by others for example one of them was that of the movie The Lion King where a Japanese studio claimed that they were based on an anime called kimba to make the much-loved Disney movie.

Avoiding plagiarism is the best thing we can do:

---

• I am an honest person I do not like to take advantage of others, and if I commit plagiarism it would be to be dishonest and a profiteer, many times people want things easy, jumping directly to the goal without even striving to achieve it avoiding plagiarism can bring us many benefits.

• Let's add information to our brain, nourish it with knowledge, in this way it will be easier for us to think and create some work or work, let's exploit all our potential in what we have talent either in art, writing, music, and if we are good at that we can place copyright to our work.

• That is to say that if someone wants to use our content it must be with our permission or they can even pay for it, imagine being able to create a book that can inspire you to make a movie would be something great and it usually happens, instead if we focus on only copying others.

• We will not progress in our lives, we will be stuck in a loop of just being the copy and paste of other people, a person without a future without originality of his own, we must not look for the easy way we must walk the difficult path and they will see that it will be worth it.

Avoid plagiarism by quoting and placing sources:

---

The best way to avoid plagiarism is to cite the work of others in our own works by simply using quotation marks and mentioning the author will serve not to be accomplices of plagiarism I will leave you a quoted text :

"War makes the victor stupid and the vanquished spiteful." Author (Friedrich Nietzsche), German philosopher.

3 Types of plagiarism

---

Cloning: copying someone else's work word for word without editing it.

Mosaic Plagiarism: Copy different works and make each of them fit perfectly into a totally new publication.

Self-plagiarism: reuse parts of other works of our authorship and publish them as new works but knowing that it is only a recycling of our content.
