易错句子She wakening at six every morning.
正确表达She wakens at six every morning.
wakening 是名词，表示“醒来”这一行为，不能单独充当谓语；句子需要一个限定动词，主语 she 后用第三人称单数 wakens（也可说 wakes up）。汉语动词没有词形变化，学习者容易把 -ing 形式直接当谓语动词用。

易错句子I can't concentrate during my wakening hours.
正确表达I can't concentrate during my waking hours.
表示“醒着的时间”这一固定搭配是 waking hours，其中 waking 是形容词“醒着的”；wakening 是名词，指醒来的行为，不能修饰 hours。汉语“醒着的时候”不区分这两种形式，学习者易混。
若指“停止睡眠的行为”，awakening 和 wakening 都可；但比喻性的“觉醒、醒悟”用 awakening，wakening 不用于这类比喻。
waking 常作形容词，修饰 hours、life 等，表示“醒着的、清醒的”时段；wakening 是名词，指醒来的动作，不能直接放在名词前表示“醒时的”。
wake 是动词，常作谓语，表示人自己醒来或叫醒别人；wakening 是名词，指“醒来的动作”，常作主语或宾语，不能直接替代句中的谓语动词。
