In my own word plagiarism is stealing. Stealing someone's else's work, text, ideas, images etc without the person's concept or permission.

"The human plagiarism which is most difficult to avoid, for individuals... is the plagiarism of ourselves." https://www.ranker.com/list/notable-and-famous-plagiarism-quotes/reference
"What a good thing Adam had. When he said a good thing, he knew nobody had said it before".

DIFFERENT MEANING OF PLAGIARISM

Plagiarism means using someone else’s words or ideas without proper attribution.

Direct plagiarism is the word-for-word transcription of a section of someone else’s work, without attribution and without quotation marks. The deliberate plagiarism of someone else's work is unethical, academically dishonest, and grounds for disciplinary actions, including expulsion. [See examples.]

Different Types of Plagiarism:

Deliberate Plagiarism
Deliberate plagiarism is the most common form of plagiarism and is the act of attempting to pass off someone else’s work as one’s own. An alternative definition of deliberate plagiarism is that it is the process of actively trying to deceive academic tutors by passing off someone else’s work as their own.

Paraphrasing
Another common type of plagiarism which occurs in the world of academia is paraphrasing, which is the act of altering a few words but retaining the same sentence structure used by the original author.

Patchwork Paraphrasing
Patchwork paraphrasing is largely the same as paraphrasing as noted above, except that it involves stealing words and ideas from multiple source texts and patching them together.

Additionally, patchwork paraphrasing can often involve an author copying material from several different writers and passing off their arguments as their own.

Bluffing
The concept of bluffing involves reading some key source texts such as books and academic journals, noting down some key ideas so that they seem different though in essence they are the same. This type of plagiarism is equally egregious to deliberate, paraphrasing and patchwork paraphrasing because the student is using the work of other authors and claiming ownership of their words and ideas to overstate the students own knowledge of the subject matter.

Mosaic Plagiarism
Mosaic plagiarism refers to the process of a student using synonyms to replace the words of existing authors in an attempt to pass off the work as their own. Typically, this act of plagiarism often involves the student retaining the author’s main, central idea or argument and simply replacing a few words to pass of the work as their own.

Accidental Plagiarism
Accidental plagiarism typically occurs when a student mistakes the views of one author for another, neglects to cite their sources and/or unintentionally paraphrases from a source, whether this be paraphrasing or patchwork paraphrasing.

1. Citation of the source:

The accuracy is based on the experience in skills of the paper writer and general reviewer.
So to avoid plagiarism while writing the research paper include and footnote citation or an in-text citation that helps the reader in identifying the original author of the source.

1. Use Quotation:

Quotations are applicable when the exact word to word definition of the original author is used that is done in case it is impossible to redraw or rephrase the sentence without losing its original or initial meaning.
It does not work for long passages, it works for a definition or the content whose style and authority of the words is must to be maintained.
