**WHAT IS PLAGIARISM
Plagiarism this involves imitating another person's work without referencing or citing the source the idea emanated feom. it can be their creative works,images,texts, without the person's concept.

Plagiarism occurs when a writer uses someone else’s language, ideas, or material without acknowledging its source.

Nevertheless, let's go through the different types of plagiarism that on the cause of my research, I was able to spot.

**Types of plagiarism

SELF PLAGIARISM

To reuse some of your former words is called “self-plagiarism”. This plagiarism is actually when a person copy his or her former work, or try to mix parts of his/her former activities without attribution. Reusing your former work and use it
as a new one.it is not advisable because this makes the user present it as a new one.

DIRECT PLAGIARISM

The Direct plagiarism a person copy other peoples work, word for word, and the person also claim the copied work to be his or her own. It means word for word transcription or the use of a section of someone else’s work without attribution and without quotation marks.

MOSAIC PLAGIARISM

The Mosaic plagiarism simple means when a person borrows or copy words from a source without seeking permission from the owner. This Plagiarism, occurs 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.

PATCHWORK PLAGIARISM

This is another type of plagiarism which is similar to copying and is perhaps the most common type of plagiarism .This is also related to the mosaic plagiarism. It occurs when the plagiarizer borrows the phrases and clauses from the original source and weaves them into his own writing without putting the phrases in quotation mark or citing the author.

ACCIDENTAL PLAGIARISM

The Accidental Plagiarism means when a person mistakenly copy someone’s else work in the process of making his/her research, this kind of plagiarism is difficult to avoid. 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.

EFFECT OF PLAGIARISM

• Plagiarism makes a person mentally lazy to think, reason and analyze his or her work, in absence of a source he can find it difficult to publish.

• Plagiarism leads the copyright laws against plagiarizer which is a serious problem especially in the aspect of not referencing or citing the person at which the plagiarizer copied from.

•Plagiarizing someone’s work, and it becomes known this can damage the image of the plagiarizer in the society and in that field

HOW TO AVOID PLAGIARISM

Proper citing of your work:
When writing in your post, words that doesn't belong to you , ensure you place the full name of the source you cited your writings, the date it was published and the necessary requirements needed.don't neglect to cite the source of your images.

Paraphrasing:
This involves rewriting ideas or information from a source into your own words, and retaining it's original meaning. This can actually have 80% plagiarism if not properlery done. Ensure you are careful while paraphrasing and also the key is to format or record without altering the meaning of the idea.

Have your own wordings:
Endeavor to reason out something from your brain this will distinguish your work and make it outstanding.in the course of this avoid "self plagiarism".

Check for plagiarism:
Do proper cross checking of your work
Before you publish it, re-read your work to make sure there is no atom of plagiarism, even from the source you got your information.

Proper quotation:
Make reference to someone's speech by the use of quotation marks,it makes your work free from plagiarism you become the rightful owner of the work and it gives credit to the source.

I have read and understood the Steemit Etiquette on Steemit Community and will do my best to embrace them.

Hey ya! @johnpatrick12 Welcome on board :)
Hope so you have started steeming as you are successfully making your third achievement. You have written it so well.

One thing that I want to share with you is that you can enclose this source link in shorter form. By the following syntax.
[source/reference] (link of source) --> I have given a gap between the square bracket and round bracket but for applying it there should be no gap in between any of the two brackets.
It will appear like this source

Similarly, if you want to quote someone's message use this symbol ">" from a fresh new line.

message/saying

Happy steeming :)
For any query, you can comment down I'll try to help you:)
