How to paraphrase without losing meaning

Restate any paragraph in your own structure while every fact survives intact — a four-check method for study and work.

Mark the untouchables

Underline technical names, dates, and numbers before rewriting. Reword the explanation around them, never the facts themselves.

Split long sentences in two, switch passive to active voice, and reorder ideas so the strongest point comes first.

Read the rewrite against the original line by line. If a claim shifted meaning, fix it before doing anything else.

If a sentence still carries two ideas, split it. Short sentences survive rewriting with fewer distortions.

Restating in your own words still requires a citation in academic and professional work. Add it before exporting.

Export the paraphrased text to Word or PDF and reopen the file to confirm terms and citations survived.
