"wake","waken","awake", and "awaken"
I guess that you mean the sleeping associations of those words.
You could wake me -- then I would not be sleeping any more.
I could wake you - then you would not be sleeping any more.
I am awake - means I am not sleeping.
If I awaken you - it means that I do something to make you stop sleeping.
I think that awaken is not used that much except in writing now.
the word with the spelling "wake" but not the other words, can mean
--> the track in the ocean left by a ship
--> a type of party after a funeral where friends and relatives mourn the deceased.
The word "awaken" can also mean "to realize" something.
