In three to five sentences, compare and contrast paraphrasing and summarizing.

To put simply, paraphrasing refers to the conversion of the original or the concerned source material into the own or personal words of the reader or the interpreter. In contrast, summarizing mainly refers to the conversion of the main idea/s, concept/s or content of any original text or source material into the writer's or interpreter's own words.

Explanation:

Paraphrasing commonly engages putting any original text of any source material into the own words of the reader or the interpreter of the material. On the other hand, summarizing mainly involves converting the central idea/s or the content/s of the source material into the own words of the reader or interpreter of the source material. Paraphrasing involves selection of any specific broader section or part of the source material and its conversion into a shorter version in terms of the own words of the reader or the interpreter, whereas, summarizing construes selection of the overall of main idea/s or content of the source material and putting it into a condensed form, expressed in the own words of the reader or interpreter.
