How to use "Uprise" in context?
In ancient times, the word "uprise" meant simply "an increase in the number of people or things." Over the years, the meaning of the word has expanded to include any sort of energetic or social overturning.
The term is most commonly associated with revolutionary movements, and in particular, uprisings against oppressive regimes. In recent years, however, the word has been applied to a number of grassroots movements and insurgencies around the world, from the Syrian Civil War to Sri Lanka's civil unrest.
In many cases, uprisings are marked by auarthetic displays of defiance and strength.
