Abstract

The article presents a critical review of modern methods of concealingborrowings in academic works of students in the Kazakh language. Threekeydirectionsareconsidered:semantic (paraphrasing, synonymizing, grammatical transformations), technical (hidden characters, substitution of Cyrillic letters with Latin ones, use of Unicode control characters), and structural (tables, schemes, images). Particular attention is paid to the specifics of the Kazakh language as an agglutinative language, which complicates the task of automatic plagiarism detection. Contemporaryresourcesforhiding borrowing are analyzed. The authors propose methods for neutralizing such concealment, covering not only textual data but also tabular materials, as well as visual elements –diagrams and charts.
