I think that plagiarism is something that can get you in a lot of trouble and is always going to be bad thing if you try to do it. Plagiarism I think is when you either copy and paste something that someone else wrote and say it is yours. It might just be only changing a couple of words out of a sentence that someone else wrote, but if you do not put it all in your own words then it is still plagiarism. I think a lot of people will change the couple small words of someone elses sentence and think it is not plagiarism if they do not write it word for word. I think it is still the same thing unless you take the whole thing you are reading and think of it in your terms. Plagiarism is something everyone needs to try and stay away from because it is illegal and not something smart to do.
