event of the sun appearing
The event when the sun comes up in the morning and you can see it appear.
Модель уживання:
watch [the sunrise]
Поширена помилка:
Learners sometimes use "see the sunrise" when they actually mean the time, as in "The bus leaves see the sunrise." In this case they should say "The bus leaves at sunrise." Use "watch/see the sunrise" when you are looking at the event, not talking about the time.
Синоніми
dawn (Can refer to the whole early-morning period, not only the visible sun appearing.)
|
daybreak (Focuses on the beginning of daylight rather than the visible movement of the sun.)
Антоніми
sunset (The event of the sun disappearing below the horizon in the evening, the reverse of sunrise.)

start of a new positive period
A poetic way to say the beginning of a new and hopeful time.
Модель уживання:
the sunrise of [a period]
Поширена помилка:
Learners more often know the figurative use of "dawn" ("the dawn of a new era") and may not realize that "sunrise" can be used in a similar but more poetic way. This usage is not common in everyday conversation and is best kept for formal or literary writing.
Синоніми
dawn (Very common in this figurative sense, e.g. "the dawn of a new era"; slightly more standard than "sunrise" here.)
|
beginning (Neutral, lacks the positive or poetic feel that "sunrise" suggests.)
Антоніми
sunset (In figurative use, suggests the end or decline of a period, the opposite of a hopeful start.)
|
end (Neutral opposite of "beginning", without the imagery of light or hope.)
