Raise is a transitive verb - it requires a object to act on Rise is a intransitive verb - doesnot require an object to act on.. An example could be She started raising her voice.. here subject is she, object is voice, therefore RAISING is used. Her voice started rising.. here the subject is the voice itself, therefore RISING is used 3 votes 3 votes Aditi Thakur commented Dec 2, 2023 reply Follow Share Also all three forms are rise rose risen raise raised raised 0 votes 0 votes Please log in or register to add a comment.
