What does AWAKE mean?
AWAKE (adjective): not asleep; conscious and alert. Example: “They were still awake at midnight, finishing the last of the crossword.”
Similar: alert, conscious, stirring. Opposite: asleep, unconscious, drowsy.
Did you know? "Awake" can also be a verb meaning to stop sleeping, as in "I awoke before sunrise," though "woke" is more common in everyday speech.
Using AWAKE in a sentence
AWAKE normally comes after a verb rather than before a noun: you stay awake, lie awake or are wide awake, and you'd describe 'a child who is awake' rather than 'an awake child'. Lie awake carries a hint of worry: 'He lay awake wondering whether he'd locked the door.' Keep someone awake works for noise and worries alike. Followed by to, it means aware of something: 'Regulators are finally awake to the risks.' The partner wide adds emphasis, the same way it does in wide open.
How AWAKE fits the puzzle
AWAKE circles a single A, the lone A in the middle of TO A TEE.
Its circled letters feed the caption answer, TO A TEE.
