Raise Or Rise?

The verbs raise and rise both refer to something going "up". The main difference between them is that raise is transitive (it must have a direct object) and rise is intransitive (no direct object).

• Something raises something.
• Something rises.

We also note that:

• raise is regular: raise, raised, raised
• rise is irregular: rise, rose, risen

Raise (regular, transitive)

If you raise something, it means that you elevate it - you move it up or lift it to a higher level.

• The government plans to raise the age of retirement from 65 to 67.
• If you have a question, please raise your hand.

Rise (irregular, intransitive)

If something rises, it means that it elevates itself - it goes up itself. No external force is needed to lift it. But note that there is not always a physical movement; sometimes the meaning is just "to increase".

• I like to rise at 6am, but my husband stays in bed until 8am.
• If it doesn't stop raining, the river will rise and overflow.

How to Know the Difference Between Rise and Raise

• Both words can mean "to move upwards", but they are not interchangeable. "Rise" is an intransitive verb and "raise" is a transitive verb.

• "Raise" when used as a verb is transitive: it requires that you have a direct object, a noun of some kind that you are applying the verb to. For example, "I must raise an objection"—"an objection" is the object that the subject (I) is using the verb to act upon.
  "Rise" on the other hand, is an intransitive verb: it does not require a direct object; your sentence can be complete without one. "Please rise" is entirely correct and complete.
  
  
• Use 'raise' to indicate that something is lifted into another position by another person or thing.
  I raised the books above my head.
