Wake 和awake都有“醒；叫醒；吵醒”的含义，用法区分很细腻。
首先，二者都可以做动词，wake, woke, woken; awake, awoke, awoken。只是Wake做动词，一般以动词短语wake up的形式出现：
??I wake up at 7:00 AM every day. ?Wake me up, before you go-go. ?I awoke the baby.也算正确，但不常用，用I woke the baby.更地道 ?I was awakened by the dog’s barking. Awake较常出现在被动语气中 ?其次，awake可做形容词，而wake不能
??On New Year’s Eve, my children stay awake until midnight. ?§ He’s awake.
Asleep的用法与awake做形容词时一样。
· He’s asleep.
