Sian

Hi, I'm Sian for BBC Learning English. And today, we're going to look at the difference between 'raise' and 'rise'.

So 'raise' and 'rise' both refer to something going up, but there's a difference in how we use them.

'Raise' always needs a direct object – so if youraisesomething, you move it up. For example: I raisemy eyebrows when I'm surprised!

And it doesn't have to be literal – so: The government plan to raisetaxes.

Don't forget this is a regular verb, so the past and past participle are both 'raised'.

But with 'rise', there's no direct object. So if somethingrises, it goes up or increases by itself. The sunrisesat 6 a.m. at the moment.

Careful, this is an irregular verb so the past is 'rose' and the past participle is 'risen'.

用法总结

Raise vs rise

Both raise and rise refer to something going up, but there is a difference.“Raise” 和 “rise” 作动词时都有 “上升” 的意思，但它们的用法不同。

1. Raise

Raiseneeds a direct object - if youraisesomething you move it up. It has both literal and non-literal meanings and it is a regular verb, so it's past and past participle forms areraised.

动词 “raise” 后必要加直接宾语，如：“raisesomething”，意思是 “把某物举起、抬起、提起”。“Raise” 既可以指 “抬起具体的事物”，也可以表现 “增长，提高某事物”。“Raise” 是端正动词，以是已往式和已往分词均为 “raised”。

I raisemy eyebrows when I'm surprised.

The government plan to raisetaxes.

He raisedhis voice at me in anger, but I forgave him.

2. Rise

Rise does not take a direct object - things riseor go up by themselves.Riseis an irregular verb so the past form isroseand the past participle isrisen.

动词 “rise” 后不必要加直接宾语，如： “something rises”，意思是 “某物本人升起、上升”。“Rise” 是不端正动词，它的已往时为 “rose”，已往分词为 “risen”。

The sun rises at 6a.m.

The water level risestwice a day because of the tide.

The bird roseinto the air and flew away.
