This pair is the cleanest demonstration of -- in the language. is transitive, you lift something: . puts the same action on the subject: . English uses two unrelated verbs, raise and rise, and gets them mixed up constantly; Esperanto uses one root and a suffix and never does. Works for the sun, for prices, for people getting out of bed and for a crowd getting to its feet.
