The derived form of
plagiarism was introduced into English around 1620.
Plagiarism is the act of
stealing someone else’s idea and then saying that it is one’s own original
work. It is considered academic dishonesty and breach of journal ethics. It is
subject to sanctions like penalties, suspension, and even expulsion. Although
it is not a crime in itself, it is a serious ethical offense in both academia
and industry. Cases of it may constitute copyright infringement. It is also
considered as a moral offense against anyone who has provided the plagiarist
with a benefit in exchange for what is specifically supposed to be original content.
