What is plagiarism?

Plagiarism is when someone uses another author's words, thoughts, ideas, or expressions as their own. Plagiarism is defined differently in educational settings depending on the institution. Plagiarism is regarded as a breach of academic integrity and journalistic ethics. Penalties, suspension, expulsion from school or employment, large fines, and even jail may be imposed. In academics, examples of "extreme plagiarism" have recently been discovered. In Europe in the 18th century, the concept of plagiarism as evil and originality as an ideal evolved, particularly with the Romantic movement.
