Rise vs. Raise: What's the Difference?
Edited by Sumera Saeed || By Sawaira Riaz || Published on November 3, 2023
"Rise" means to move upward or increase on its own, while "Raise" means to lift or elevate something else.
Key Differences
"Rise" is an intransitive verb, indicating an upward movement or increase without the direct action of another entity. In contrast, "Raise" is a transitive verb, implying that there's an object being acted upon, leading it to ascend or elevate.

In many contexts, "Rise" suggests a natural or passive elevation or growth. For example, the sun rises, and temperatures can rise. "Raise," on the other hand, implies an active effort to elevate or increase something, like raising one's hand or raising an issue.

Another distinction lies in the subject of the action. When something "rises," it does so on its own accord. Bread rises. When something is "raised," it's being acted upon by an external force. A farmer raises crops.

Grammatically, "Rise" doesn't take a direct object because things rise by themselves. Conversely, "Raise" requires an object, as there's always something being lifted or elevated.

A noteworthy point about both "Rise" and "Raise" is their application in varied contexts. While "Rise" can pertain to literal and figurative growth or increase, "Raise" often alludes to elevating in position, rank, or status, as well as literal lifting.
