Turnitin.com is a joke:
essayfraud.org/turnitin_john_barrie.html
Turnitin is being sued for copyright infringement: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/03/28/AR200703280 2038.html

Turnitin will soon be a thieving thing of ths past. The court case is supposed to begin in September.

WriterInn: Then which site we can use to check plagiarism....? You're supposedly a writer....why would you need to check for plagiarism? Shouldn't you know that you didn't plagiarize simply because you wrote it? Or do you need to make sure that your plagiarism will go undetected?

WriterInn: Its not only for me.. This is for general public.. No, it's ONLY for you, so you can keep spamming a bunch of random threads
WriterInn: I'm not asking for me ... You're not asking for anyone, because you don't really care about the answer. You think that having your name appear in a bunch of threads will somehow make you look legitimate and that customers will contact you looking for writing help (and you're increasing your post count so you can PM people). This makes you look like another scammer who is here to completely rip people off--am I wrong?

It shouldn't be a problem in the first place, since if you are honest, the paper should be individually written.
That having been said, I have had problems with Turn-it-in thinking ACTUAL QUOTES were plagiarism. Quotes in quotation marks. With parentheses afterwards. With author name and date. Yeah...

Hey there,
Does anybody know if turnitin can detect plagiarism by translating documents?
Thanks!

Try not to revive zombie topics. X: But translating documents isn't the best thing if you're using an automatic translator like Google Translate or Babelfish. It's better if you know both languages that you are translating.

Thanks for the tip! I actually do know both languages so I am guessing it's ok. Anyway, when translating you never really translate to a text to the word.
Thanks again
