English already has a word for that- asleep
- Arch485 2y agoNo, "asleep" is the opposite of "awake". Woke is a different construct. Maybe an antonym to "woke" could be "slept"?
- 7bit 2y agoIt couldn't, because that has a negative connotation in that context.
- _yb2s 2y ago“woke” the adjective not the past tense verb. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/woke https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/woke For clarity, my suggestion was also sarcastic.
- Arch485 2y agoAs was I :)
- SideQuark 2y ago“Woke” in this context is literally a synonym for “awake” [1]. It’s best to learn nuances of word usage before “correcting” others. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woke https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woke
