Does “get someone up” mean an act or object?

Is using get up correct?

  • How do I tell you I woke up?
  • Is my tress sorry I got you up?

I use wake up for get up all the time, but in my expression it sounds a bit odd.

Both are correct in individual contexts. But get up is NOT the same as wake up.

Wake up means to wake from sleep, get up mean to get out of bed. Is it possible to wake people up without them being up? If you said someone could just lie awake in the bed, what would you do?

I’m sorry I got you up, while meaning “I’m sorry I forced you out of bed,” could imply that the late riser was woken up as well.

If you are actually going to make somebody out of bed, you feel like you have to get up to have fun for a while. What kind of things is your mother pushing you
