    How it works

    1. 1

      Paste the text and pick a mode. “simple” is secretly the best comprehension check there is.

    2. 2

      Click “Paraphrase” and compare the result against your original, substitution by substitution.

    3. 3

      For single sentences, you'll get two alternatives. Compare what each changed.

    4. 4

      Practise the reverse: paraphrase something yourself, then see what the tool does differently.

    Good to know

    Why paraphrase is the core IELTS skill

    IELTS is built on paraphrase in every section. Reading questions restate the passage in different words; Listening answers hide behind synonyms of what you heard; Writing Task 1 begins by paraphrasing the prompt (copying it wastes words and marks); and the Lexical Resource descriptors explicitly reward “paraphrasing effectively”. Training the skill deliberately (seeing the same meaning wearing different words) transfers to all four papers at once.

    Good paraphrase changes structure, not just words

    Swapping synonyms one-for-one produces stilted English (“significant” → “considerable” fixes nothing). Real paraphrase re-architects: active flips to passive, a verb becomes a noun phrase, a clause becomes a participle. “The government increased taxes, which angered voters” → “The tax increase provoked public anger.” The substitution list in each result highlights structural moves like these; they're the ones worth stealing.

    Questions

    Which mode should I use for IELTS practice?
    Academic for Writing Task 2 phrasing practice, simple for testing whether you truly understand a hard Reading sentence, and fluent for making your own stiff sentences sound natural. Standard is the general-purpose default.
    Will the meaning ever drift?
    The tool is constrained to preserve meaning exactly: no additions, no omissions. That constraint is what makes it a paraphraser rather than a rewriter; if you want the content improved rather than restated, that's the Text Improver's job.
    Is paraphrasing someone else's text plagiarism?
    Paraphrasing without attribution is still plagiarism in academic contexts. Changing the words doesn't change whose idea it is. Use this tool to practise the language skill and to rework your own writing; cite sources exactly as you would otherwise.
    Why does it give two versions for short inputs?
    A single sentence has many valid paraphrases, and comparing two teaches more than reading one. You see which elements were free to change and which had to survive in both.
