Paraphrasing Defined
We've all watched television shows or heard news stories we wanted to tell others about. We may have told our friends, our family, or our coworkers about what happened, how it happened, and why it happened. We recounted the storyline, the main characters, the events, and important points using our own words. This is paraphrasing - using your own words to express someone else's message or ideas. In a paraphrase, the ideas and meaning of the original source must be maintained; the main ideas need to come through, but the wording has to be your own.
Guidelines for Paraphrasing
How do you paraphrase a source?
- Read the original two or three times or until you are sure you understand it.
- Put the original aside and try to write the main ideas in your own words. Say what the source says, but no more, and try to reproduce the source's order of ideas and emphasis.
- Look closely at unfamiliar words, observing carefully the exact sense in which the writer uses the words.
- Check your paraphrase, as often as needed, against the original for accurate tone and meaning, changing any words or phrases that match the original too closely. If the wording of the paraphrase is too close to the wording of the original, then it is plagiarism.
- Include a citation for the source of the information (including the page numbers) so that you can cite the source accurately. Even when you paraphrase, you must still give credit to the original author.
ExamplesParaphrasing can be done with individual sentences or entire paragraphs. Here are some examples.
Original sentence:Her life spanned years of incredible change for women.
Paraphrased sentence:Mary lived through an era of liberating reform for women.
Original sentence:Giraffes like Acacia leaves and hay, and they can consume 75 pounds of food a day.
Paraphrased sentence:A giraffe can eat up to 75 pounds of Acacia leaves and hay every day.
