Etymology
Etymology Information

'awaked' (as a form of 'awake') originates from Old English, specifically the verb 'āwacan' (or 'awacan'), where the prefix 'ā-' meant 'on, up' and 'wacan' meant 'to wake'.

Historical Evolution

'āwacan' changed through Middle English forms such as 'awaken'/'awake' and eventually produced modern English forms including 'awake', 'awoke', 'awoken' and regular variants like 'awaked'.

Meaning Changes

Initially, it meant 'to wake up, to arise' and over time it has retained that core meaning; modern usage includes both irregular ('awoke/awoken') and regular ('awaked/awaked') past forms in some contexts.
