Yes, he did. He primarily copied direct work and answers from the books, and works of legendary Muslim scholars Al- Batani, Ar- Razi (Greek name: Rhazes), Al- Tusi, e.t.c. Copernicus's works were not as accurate as the Muslim scholars 200 years before him, therefore, he could not help but to copy from their works. I am not 100% sure if he cited his copying.
He kept his work a secret, until the year of is death, to avoid conflict with the Church.

Nobody "discovered" that the Sun was at the centre of the Solar system.Aristarchus of Samos, a greek philosopher and astronomer (310BC-230BC) first presented the theory that the Sun was at the centre of the solar system (heliocentrism) but his ideas were rejected in favour of the theories of Ptolemy and Aristotle that the Earth was at the centre (geocentrism).Copernicus (1473-1543) re-raised, developed and published the heliocentric theory in the 16th Century (nearly 1800 years after Aristarchus). It was a contentious issue, and the heliocentric theory was supported by Galileo (1564-1642) but he was persecuted (tried by the Roman Church's inquisition and found guilty of heresy) till he died.Aristarchus of Samos, a Greek astronomer and mathematician about 2400 years ago.

The Codex Sinaiticus is simply a fourth-century copy of earlier manuscripts that have long since been destroyed. The importance of the codex is that it contains the earliest surviving copy of the New Testament, helping scholars to research how much the books of the New Testament have changed over the centuries and, where possible, why. So, the unknown scribe who copied out the Codex Sinaiticus should not be credited with writing any new work.
Nicolas Copernicus in 1530 in his book De Revolutionibus. The first printed copy of the book was published on May 24, 1543.
The cultural significance of the carolingian minuscule was that it could be copied, and often times, scholars did copy it. This helps to make the work look authentic.
It you are asking about the difference, in modern terminology they have come to mean the same thing. Earlier history defines imitate as someone we may follow as a good example in life. To copy, is a transcription or reproduction of a paper, a file or a text
Another answer from our community:The Catholic Church actually encouraged Nicolas Copernicus to publish his book, and it was published with a tribute to the reigned Pope, the local Bishops encouraged him, along with a Cardinal in Rome. Copernicus had major problems because the protestant Lutherans thought that he was going against the Bible, and he didn't want to cause any more trouble. At that time, Copernicus was already dying and at the end of his life, so only the chapter on mathematics was actually published before his final decline. Copernicus was urged by Cardinal Schonberg, then Archbishop of Capua, in a letter, dated at Rome, 1 November, 1536, to publish his discovery, or at least to have a copy made at the cardinal's expense. Shortly there after, Copernicus had a stroke and lost one side of his body, and his memory was greatly impaired. But for the protests of the protestants, the whole thing would have been published much earlier.
Every thing from Roman mythology has a Greek counterpart, except Janus who was the god of beginnings and endings.
