 Hello everyone, this is Amit Dan of AmitDan.com. If this is your first time here or a repeat visit, thank you for your support. On this channel, I am always trying new and different ideas. If there is something you are interested in, please visit for more. If you are only looking for tutorial videos, there will be links in the description box below. Today, I am going to talk about how to copy, cut and paste in Google Docs. I have this article right here, which is based on my Egypt trip. And I have been publishing my Egypt trip journals on my website, AmitDan.com. And you will be able to see the same trip on my YouTube channel, which is going to be provided in the description box below. So I am going to talk about copy, cut and paste. And basically there are three different ways you can do the same thing. So we have this article and let's say I would like to copy this part, the temple. So the first thing you are going to be doing is that you have to highlight that part which you would like to copy. So it can be the whole document or part of the document or a word or sentence. So for now, let's say we would like to copy the temple, these two words. So when you highlight that, then you will go to edit, which is on the toolbar. And if you click on it, then you will see that you have some options here. For example, copy, cut and paste. So the difference between copy and cut is that when you are copying something, you are just kind of duplicating that. And the original part, which you are copying, still remains intact. But when you are cutting something, then you are kind of deleting that. The original part does not stay there anymore, it gets deleted. So for now, let's copy the temple and then we are going to just put our cursor in here. So let's say somewhere right here and if we go back to the edit section and now you see that you have only one option which is paste and if you click on it, then it's going to paste the temple from here to here. Now you can see that the original temple which we copied from is still there. It didn't get deleted. But let's do the same thing again. And this time you would use cut command and see what happens. So we are going to highlight the temple again and then go back to the edit and then cut. And you can see that the cut words are gone and I am going to just put my cursor right here. If I go back to edit again and then we click on paste and you can see that it cut the cut and paste the temple. But leaving the original the temple word so it's deleted the original and then put it here. So that's the difference between copy and cut. Now there is another way you can do the same thing. So let me just reverse what we did. So when we highlighted this part and we went to the edit portion then if you noticed there would be some shortcuts right here and you can actually use these shortcuts to copy, cut and paste. So for example for copy control C, cut control X and control V. And let's get rid of that part. So I am going to just you know copy or highlight this portion and now I am going to use on my keyboard control X which is the shortcut command for cut. So control X and you can see that it's gone and I will just put my cursor right there and on my keyboard I will just hit control and V and then you can see that the temple is back here. So it took the original temple or deleted that and it put it in here. So that's the second way you can do that by using keyboard commands or keyboard shortcuts. And now there is a third way you can do the same thing. So let's go back to the original. So you are going to be highlighting the same thing again and inside that highlighted portion you are going to right click on your mouse and if you do that you are going to see some options and you are going to see the same option right here. Copy, cut and paste. And you can just you know do the same thing from here too. So I am not going to show you an example again because it is basically the same thing. So here is another option you can do copy and cut. Now let's talk about another option which is not from the edit bar or from right clicking or from the keyboard shortcuts. So to use this method you have to just highlight that portion and you are dragging the whole highlighted part by you know holding your mouse on the left click. So I clicked on the left part of the mouse and then I hold it and I am going to just release that click and you can see that it moved the whole part right there. So it kind of cut the part it didn't copy. So there is another way you can do this. So let me just you know try something else from here. So let's say I would like to move this whole section above it and above Egypt travel blog this title right here. So all I have to do I am just going to hold on to the highlighted bar and put it in here and now you can see that it's switched back to above Egypt travel blog section. So this is very effective if you are like you know moving a portion a paragraph or sentence or some parts of the document. So you can use this method. So basically these are the ways you can copy cut paste in Google Docs. Thank you for watching this video there will be more videos coming up. So I'll see you shortly. Thank you.
