What is difference between rise and raise?



Answer:
rise is the existence of elevation. raise is to cause the elevation.
rise is like a sunrise

raise is like "I've been a good employee, could I get a raise?"
"Rise" is something that might happen all on its own. "Raise" implies an active effort to lift something up.
You raise your children, but the sun rises every day. Bread rises too, and you can raise a roof.
Rise's present participle is rising and raise's is raising

Ok, I don't know
Rise is getting up outta bed & raise is getting a higher pay rate from your employer
British say rise in pay. Americans say raise in pay
RISE IS WHEN U GET HIGHER AND RAISE WHEN U R RAISING SOMEBODY
Rise is to stand up or to become larger either physically or mentally (rise from kneeling; rise in behavior)

Raise it to lift something or to increase something else besides one's self. (Can you raise the box; Can you give me a pay raise?)
they share the same definition, but rise is used to describe an action you are not causing, while raise is a verb describing one's own actions
Both words suggest upward movements, however, "rise" suggests movement caused intrinsically while "raise" is caused extrinsically.
As verbs, the tenses are different and they are used to describe different types of words. Rise is generally used for describing things that will happen; the sun will rise, zombies will rise from their graves. Raise is used more for things that are currently happening; I raise my eyes to watch the bird, most mammal raise their young and teach them important life skills. Also, as nouns, their definitions are quite different. A rise can be used to describe any elevation in land, such as a hill. A raise is usually an increase in money. Try looking them both up on dictionary.com if you still have trouble distinguishing them from each other.
I rise in the morning
I raise people from the dead.
I rose to a beautiful sunrise.
I was roused to action.

One use is self propelled, the other implies outside influence or assistance.
They're very similar words, and can mean the same thing sometimes. Both words refer to a movement in the upward direction but there many cases were only one would be appropriate. The main difference I think, is that when you use raise you usually are referring to someone performing the action of raising, but rise is used to describe the motion of an object eg . "I raised my hand" or "the flag was raised" (both actions performed by someone). One would use rise for eg when saying "Hot air rises" or " The water kept on rising" (both actions were performed by the object itself).
