Achievement 3 and Achievement 4 by @sahilgupta

Hello steemians, I hope everyone is doing great. Today we are going to talk about an important topic which cannot be ignored at all. When someone has copied your work and doesn't give you credit. Yes, I'm talking about Plagiarism. Plagiarism has always been a common phenomenon in all streams of knowledge. In the age of the internet, Plagiarism is rampant. Sometimes, it is deliberate and sometimes unintentional. So, today we will discuss Plagiarism.

What is Plagiarism ?

Plagiarism is to use the ideas or words of another person as one's own without crediting the source. It can be intentionally or unintentionally as well. In our tech-forward culture, the simple act of copy-and-paste can seem harmless, but it has serious consequences in academic and professional life. There are lots of cases where a certain portion in writing or even worse, the entire document has been copied without proper credits. For example, if I post something on steemit by using someone's word to word context (author, researcher), without giving credit source on my post will denote to Plagiarism.

“To steal (intentionally or unintentionally) and pass off (the ideas or words of another) as one’s own: use (another’s production) without crediting the source”
― Merriam-Webster dictionary
