How do you paraphrase a text?
-
Paste your text
A sentence, a paragraph, an email or a whole page: up to 6,000 characters, about 1,000 words. Up to 300 characters (a sentence or two), the tool offers three versions.
-
Choose the style
Standard, fluent, formal, simple, shorter, longer or creative: tap the pill that matches what you need, then click “Paraphrase”.
-
Pick, copy, repeat
Compare the new version with the original (with the word count before and after) or choose among the three options. Copy it, download it, or ask for another version.
Say the same thing, differently
Seven paraphrasing styles
Standard to change words and phrasing, fluent to smooth out a clumsy text, formal for work and official letters, simple to be understood by everyone, shorter to sum up, longer to expand, creative for a livelier tone.
Three options for a sentence
For a short sentence, a hook, a headline or an email subject line, the tool gives you three different wordings: keep the one that speaks to you most, or pick from each.
The meaning is kept
Facts, figures, names and dates stay the same: only the way of saying it changes. The text stays in its original language, without being translated.
The next step in one click
Once you have picked a version, send it straight to the grammar checker for a final check, or to the tool that humanizes text for a more natural tone.
Paraphrase a sentence, a paragraph or an email
To paraphrase is to say the same thing in other words. You need it every day: a sentence that sounds off in a report, an email that comes across as curt, a paragraph that is too long, an idea you have already expressed and do not want to repeat word for word. This online paraphrasing tool rewrites your passage by really changing the structure of the sentences, not just swapping a few synonyms. For a single sentence (300 characters at most), it offers three different versions, handy for finding the right wording for a hook, an email subject line or a conclusion. For a longer text, it returns one complete version with your paragraphs kept, which you can compare with the original.
Which paraphrasing style should you choose?
The “Standard” style rewrites with a tone and length close to the original. “Fluent” fixes awkward phrasing and improves the flow between sentences: ideal for a text written in a hurry. “Formal” takes a more polished register for an official letter, a professional email or university work. “Simple” uses everyday words and short sentences so that everyone can follow. “Shorter” cuts the text by about a third to a half while keeping the key ideas. “Longer” expands and links the ideas without inventing facts. “Creative”, finally, gives a more vivid, lively style, useful for a description, a post or a presentation.
Paraphrase to write better, not to copy
Paraphrasing is an excellent exercise for improving your writing, varying your vocabulary and avoiding repetition. It does not replace citation, though: taking an author's, an article's or a course's ideas and changing the words is still borrowing. In an essay, a thesis or an article, always cite your sources, and put passages taken as they are in quotation marks. Use the tool to rework your own texts or to understand a difficult passage better, then read the result over: you remain the author, and it is up to you to check that the meaning has not drifted.
How to paraphrase a sentence well
A few simple techniques, which the tool applies and which you can reproduce: replace a word with a synonym that fits the context; turn a verb into a noun (“he refused” becomes “his refusal”) or the reverse; switch from the active to the passive voice; change the order of the ideas; split a sentence that is too long in two, or join two short sentences with a connector. Compare the tool's three options for the same sentence: you will see these techniques at work, and it will be easier to come up with your own wordings. After paraphrasing, a pass through the grammar checker removes the last mistakes.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I paraphrase a text for free?
Paste the text into the box, choose a style and click “Paraphrase”. The result arrives in a few seconds, for free and with no sign-up.
Why do I sometimes get three options and sometimes only one?
Up to 300 characters, which is a sentence or two, the tool offers three different wordings so you can choose. Beyond that, it returns a single complete version of the text, which is easier to compare with the original.
Does paraphrasing change the meaning of the text?
It is designed to keep it: facts, figures, names and dates are carried over as they are. Still, read the result over, especially for a technical or legal text, where a single word can matter.
Can I get another version?
Yes. Click “Another version” to run the paraphrase again on the same text with the same style. You can also change the style and click “Paraphrase” again.
Is paraphrasing plagiarism?
Paraphrasing someone else's ideas without citing them is still borrowing. In an essay or an article, always give your sources. The tool is made to improve your own texts, not to hide a copy.
Does the tool work in other languages?
Yes. The text is paraphrased in its original language (Spanish, French, German…), without being translated.
