wake someone from sleep

to make someone stop sleeping, or wake someone who is unconscious

Модел на употреба: to rouse [someone] (from [sleep/bed/unconsciousness])
Честа грешка:
Learners often use only 'wake (up)' and do not recognize 'rouse' as a more formal or literary alternative. Also, some confuse 'rouse' with 'arouse': 'rouse' is used for waking from sleep, while 'arouse' is not used this way in modern English.
Синоними
wake (the most common everyday verb; 'rouse' is slightly more formal or literary.)
Антоними
put to sleep (describes causing someone to fall asleep, the opposite of waking them.)

2

stir emotion or action

to make a person or group feel a strong feeling, such as anger or excitement, and start to act

Модел на употреба: to rouse [someone / a group] (to [emotion/action])
Честа грешка:
Learners often confuse 'rouse' with 'arouse' and 'raise'. Use 'rouse' or 'arouse' with emotions and actions (e.g. 'rouse anger', 'arouse interest'), but use 'raise' with objects or levels (e.g. 'raise prices', 'raise your hand'). Also, avoid using 'rouse' for sexual meaning; modern English uses 'arouse' for that.
Синоними
arouse (very close in meaning; 'arouse' is slightly more common and neutral, while 'rouse' often suggests a sudden or forceful effect.)
Антоними
calm (to make emotions weaker or quieter, the opposite of stirring them up.)
