Plagiarism
Definition of Plagiarism: the unauthorized use or close imitation of the language and thoughts of another author and the representation of them as one's own original work.
Plagiarism is the copying of one's work without permission and selling it off as your own. Plagiarism is very common in this world, but very undetectable. For example, some clothe designs were copied from the originator, but the copier produced it first, so its 'their' idea. I feel that plagiarism should be stopped as people can just copy your work without your permission and say that it is theirs. If you were to invent something, or write out a very well done speech, another person who reads it can copy it and say that it is theirs. Since they produced it first, though you might argue with them, they will still say that you copy their idea when it is actually yours.
How to prevent plagiarism? Simple. Keep your work to yourself and do not spread it around to other people. If the work is fabulous, do not brag about it but just keep silent until the correct time. That way, no one will find out about your idea and no one will know and thus no one can copy it.
Lets all work hand-in-hand and stop PLAGIARISM!
