Answer:

-Paraphrasing puts only the main idea in the writer’s words, while summarizing includes key details.

Explanation:

Paraphrasing is, in rough terms, defined as phrasing in another manner, following its etymology; that is to say, paraphrasing is restating the main idea of any form of discourse through your own words. Summarizing entails, on the other hand and in rough terms, too, condensing the main ideas or key details of any form of discourse.

Answer: Summarizing is shorter than paraphrasing and includes only the most important details

Explanation:

When paraphrasing, we rephrase the text using our own words, but without altering its meaning. When summarizing, we also must keep the original idea, but we only highlight the key elements in a compact statement.

While summarizing means shortening, paraphrasing could result in a text even longer than the original one.
