rise vs raise

zing's picture

Rise and Raise are two different words completely. But they sound similar.
Raise: [usually used when a person acts on a third person]
Meanings: to lift something, to set upright, to elevate something.
I think it can be used as a synonym for nurturing ... like he was raised by his foster parents.
Rise: [usually used when a person acts on himself]
Meanings: to get up, to get up from a sleeping/kneeling/sitting position, to come back from dead (zombies anyone!
