Paraphrase, Entailment and Contradiction
·         Paraphrase
A source state that paraphrase is a relation between synonymous expressions, i.e. expression having (nearly) the same meaning.[1] According Rahul Bhagat and Eduard Hovy state that paraphrase is sentence or phrase that convey the same meaning using different wording.[2]From those definition, we can conclude that paraphrase is two sentences with identical meaning.

1.       pat said “ I like foot ball”
       pat said that he liked foot ball.

·         Entailment.
Entailment refers to relation between a pair of sentence, where as the truth of second sentence follows from the truth of the first.[3]The other source also said that entailment is another kind of relationship between meanings, when one meaning holds, another meanings necessarily hold.[4]
 Entailment is a relationship between two or more sentences, if knowing that one sentence is true gives us certain knowledge of the truth of the second sentence, then the first sentence entails the second.[5]So we can conclude that entailment is a relation in which the truth of one sentence necessarily implies the truth of another.
