wake someone from sleep
to make someone stop sleeping, or wake someone who is unconscious
用法模式：
to rouse [someone] (from [sleep/bed/unconsciousness])
常见错误：
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.

2
stir emotion or action
to make a person or group feel a strong feeling, such as anger or excitement, and start to act
用法模式：
to rouse [someone / a group] (to [emotion/action])
常见错误：
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.
近义词
arouse (very close in meaning; 'arouse' is slightly more common and neutral, while 'rouse' often suggests a sudden or forceful effect.)
反义词
calm (to make emotions weaker or quieter, the opposite of stirring them up.)
