Now, if you knew what the word meant, you would know its only plagiarism if you quote a source and not tell people where its from. is that in simple enough english for you? maybe not, so, i did state it was from wikipedia, so its not considered plagiarism. thila, i think you have failed in this instance to prove you indeed have understood the usage of the word.
no disrespect intended, think of me as a lecturer and you the student. hope i have educated you a little today.
