About the Duplicate Text Finder
Find the passages you repeated without noticing: whole lines, whole sentences, or phrases of three to eight words. Each repeat is listed with its count, most frequent first. Writers use it to catch copy-paste leftovers, and editors use it to find boilerplate across merged documents.
How to use it
- Paste your text.
- Choose lines, sentences or phrases, and a phrase length.
- Read the list of repeats.
Questions
Is this a plagiarism checker?
No. It only compares your text with itself. It does not search the web or any database.
Are small differences ignored?
Case and repeated spaces are ignored, so 'The end.' and 'the end.' count as the same sentence.
What phrase length should I use?
Five words finds most accidental repetition without listing common expressions. Try three for short texts, eight for long documents.
