To paraphrase something is to put it in your own words. A paraphrase should keep the same main ideas as the original, but it should be simpler to read.

Paraphrase to check your understanding of a piece of writing. Paraphrase when taking notes from reference sources to be sure you don’t copy the words exactly.
85
You can use Greek and Latin roots to figure out meanings of unfamiliar words. Look at the meaning of the word ventured. The Latin roots ven and vent mean “to come.”
