Expert writing Tips
Best practice
Always use "raised a question" or "posed a question" instead of "rose question". "Rose" is the past tense of "rise", which doesn't fit the context of initiating a question.
Common error
Avoid using "rose" when you mean to indicate that a question was brought up. "Rose" implies an upward movement, while "raise" means to bring up or introduce. The correct phrasing is "raised a question".
