paraphrase
Significado: To express the meaning of something written or spoken using different words, especially to make it clearer or shorter.
Paraphrase is central to academic integrity and communication skills. In scholarship, paraphrasing (as opposed to quoting directly) demonstrates comprehension and avoids plagiarism, provided the source is cited. In everyday use, 'to paraphrase' someone is a common discourse marker. The word functions as both verb and noun, and collocates with 'roughly,' 'loosely,' and 'to paraphrase [someone].'
Ejemplos

- Students must learn to paraphrase source material rather than copying passages verbatim. 学生必须学会转述原始材料,而不是逐字照抄段落。Los estudiantes deben aprender a parafrasear el material original en lugar de copiar pasajes textualmente.学生は原典の文章をそのまま写すのではなく、言い換える方法を身につけなければならない。학생들은 원문을 그대로 베끼는 대신 출처 자료를 자기 말로 바꾸어 쓰는 법을 배워야 한다.
