Wake 和awake都有“醒；叫醒；吵醒”得含義，用法區(qū)分很細膩。

首先，二者都可以做動詞，wake, woke, woken; awake, awoke, awoken。只是Wake做動詞，一般以動詞短語wake up得形式出現(xiàn)：

I wake up at 7:00 AM every day.Wake me up, before you go-go.I awoke the baby.也算正確，但不常用，用I woke the baby.更地道I was awakened by the dog’s barking. Awake較常出現(xiàn)在被動語氣中

其次，awake可做形容詞，而wake不能

On New Year’s Eve, my children stay awake until midnight.

§ He’s awake.

Asleep得用法與awake做形容詞時一樣。

· He’s asleep.
