Rises

Rises is the plural form of the noun rise and the third-person singular present tense of the verb rise in English. As a noun, rises denotes multiple instances of an ascent, increase, or height, such as temperature rises or price rises. As a verb, rises describes the action of moving upward or increasing, as in the sun rises or costs rise.

Rises has broad usage across many fields. In science and meteorology, it appears in phrases such as temperature rises and sea level rise. In economics and finance, price rises or wage rises describe upward movements. In geography and earth science, uplifts or coastal processes may contribute to future sea level rises. In everyday language, rises can refer to multiple increases or ascents, for example two successive rises in measurements.

In arts and media, Rises is used as a title for various works and projects, including films, music albums, and books, though no singular work is universally identified with the title.

Origin: The verb rise comes from Old English risan, with related forms in the Germanic languages; the noun rise developed in Middle English from Old English rīs. The current form “rises” therefore appears as the third-person singular present tense and as the plural noun, depending on context.
