HOW TO PARAPHRASE

1. Similar Words
Try to find synonyms for verbs and adjectives and phrases for the words used in the source or in the simplified copy of the source you have written.

2. Passive and Active Voice
Change the voice of the original or simplified sentence. If the voice is active try making the paraphrase passive. If the voice is passive try making the paraphrase active.

3. Change Verbs to Nouns
To shorten and change the original source you can change a noun into a verb that has the same or similar meaning

4. Combine Sentences
Combining sentence by using conjunctions, relative clauses or appositives is a great way to change the sentence structure of a source. (or sometimes adding conjunction into a sentence is also a great way to change the order of clauses)

5. Paraphrase by Using Definitions
Identify the keywords in the sentence and replace them with their definitions. For example, replace “verdict” with “final judgment” which is what a verdict is.
