There is more to the word 'plagiarism'.Plagiarism is by itself unethical behavior, what more if , duplication of writing style and mannerisms in writing. No wonder, reading books and magazines becomes a chore and not what one enjoys doing these days. School-going children no longer enjoy the monotonous textbooks.There is no novelty to pages they read daily.
There is no standard forms of writing as many 'experts' advocate. Every writer is a creative writer with his or her wealth of experience and self acquired knowledge.The writer writes from what he knows and have understood and not from what others in the same field did.
Each individual is different,so, every writing is written with a marked difference.If any writing written by two different individuals are identical in wording,sentence structure,content arrangement,style or more, that amounts to gross plagiarism.One or the other writer did not write but followed what the other wrote.
Writings are done by leaders not followers.Leaders are the ones who make the marked difference in people's lives.Followers can never make a difference but they can only do what is already there.
