Ok, even though I know this is a trick question.

Duplicate content to me is not just exact copies, though that is definitely a form of it. For example text is not the only concern when it comes to duplicate content, image names, alt tags, title tags, if my understanding is correct those are counted towards dup content as well. So there is one form.

Another example for me is similar text, Google incorporates a thesaurus in their search, it only seems to reason that they would do the same when looking for dup content, though I hope it is a much less loosely applied. The reason I even consider this is because Google cites "appreciably similar" content when speaking of duplicate content.

I could go on, I have a list but those are the two major. And yes, I know I if this is what I think dup content is I should avoid these and I do, but I am thinking I am missing something as well.
