Dear Mr. Rama Thanks for your email and I appreciate your research capability and curiosity, actually not only some but many people in India are having the same misunderstanding and unfortunately, they have made some rules also without even spending at least a few minutes to check this practically in Turnitin. The claim of limit by consecutive words in Turnitin is so strong and dominating by many senior peoples that my mind is puzzled. I hope your reply will be viewed by many such people and they will re-think it and respond to their views again.

Dear sir, You are absolutely right, option provided in Turnitin is to exclude the small sources it is nothing to do with consecutive words. For example when exclusion of small sources is set to 10 words it only excludes the sources that are having 10 or less than 10 matching words. Even I had a privilege of having personal discussion with the Vice president Mark Dauback, and technical manager Asia region Jack Brazel and others. So, i can firmly say its misconception among few people.

Dear Thanks,
Some of the people claims it is given in Turnitin which is actually to restrict by number of total matching words in any similar documents but not consecutive words.
Above is my practical knowledge which may be wrong so any other may suggest.

Sir, I haven't come across with such functionality in any of the software to exclude the consecutive words in my practical experience. I am sure that presently no software will limit the text matching by word count.

Dear all
Which is the software to detect consecutive words during plagiarism/similarity check? UGC has mentioned less than 14 consecutive words may be excluded.
Thanking you
