![]() | Michelle978March 2018 Asleep means you're actively sleeping. (adjective) "He is asleep, or he's sleeping." awake means you're actively awake.(adjective) "the baby is awake now" sleep is simply a noun. "I need sleep!" wake is more of an action verb. "Wake your brother up, he's going to be late for work!" |
SitxMarch 2018 Yeap, thank you c:
I understood that.
![]() | robynbMarch 2018 "Sleep" is a verb, and sometimes it's used as a noun, as in the example Michelle gave. As Michelle also explains, "asleep" is an adjective used to describe a person's state of being. "Wake" is a verb, and "awake" is the adjective. Some phrases we use are "fall asleep," "wake up," and to be "wide awake." |
