Re: "copy in vim paste in lagrange - work copy in lagrange…"
use Normal mode (frantically press ESC)
you can paste without leaving insert mode by using CTRL-R <register_you_want_to_paste_from>, e.g. CTRL-R + will paste from the system clipboard (if your copy of vim was compiled with support for the system clipboard)
you can also use your terminal emulators shortcut key for pasting from the system clipboard which varies from terminal emulator to terminal emulator, but is usually CTRL-SHIFT-V.
i don't personally like the clipboard=unnamedplus option because most of my vim yanking is specific to the editing I'm doing and doesn't need to pollute my system clipboard, and most of the stuff i copy outside of vim is not relevant to my vim editing and doesn't need to pollute my vim registers.
use Visual mode (v or V) to select text
you can also use motion commands to yank without using visual mode
