What does AWOKE mean in Scrabble?
verb
To stop sleeping; the standard past-tense form of the verb to awake.
Awoke marks the moment when someone came out of sleep at an earlier point in a story, and English speakers reach for it instead of the old-fashioned-sounding awaked, which has almost dropped out of use. The word can also take an object, so a loud noise awoke the whole street shows something else being roused rather than the subject waking on its own. In American English awoke sometimes gets confused with the newer adjective woke, describing social awareness, though that sense grew away from the original idea of simply waking up. Compare the present awake, which names the ongoing state rather than the single instant of leaving it.

The everyday past tense of awake, used in ordinary narration of someone waking up.
