How to call ...
 
When we make a change in a writer �s passage or a journalist �s article, for a reading text, we must mention that with the resource bellow our reading text. How to call this or what word we should mention for copyright.

Thank you in advance

I think "adapted from..." + your source.

Looking forward to suggestions from others!

Hello, Siham,
In one of my ws I made a footnote that stated: abriged article from... (the source) you can also write adapted article (or whatever the piece of writing is) from... if you changed the wording not just the size. That �s what I would do.
May be you should wait for more comments from native speakers.
Take care,
Sophia

I agree with magneto and ueslteacher. Let me just add that if you shorten the text, it will be a good idea to write the source and then the remark �abridged and adapted� or simply "abridged and adapted from ..." [insert the website link or name of the book/story and the original author�s name]! ;))
