hike

Compared meaning: an increase in amount, price, or level (noun).

比较义项：上升、增长（名词）。

• raise

  AmE noun for an increase, especially in pay; typically used with 'give/get a raise'; neutral in tone and not necessarily sudden or large.

  美式英语名词，尤指加薪，常与 give/get a raise 搭配使用；语气中性，不一定是突然或大幅的变化。

  She got a nice raise after her performance review last month.

  上个月绩效评估之后，她加了不少薪。

• rise

  General word for an increase in amount, price, or level; in BrE it is the everyday word for a pay increase, and often describes gradual or steady change.

  泛指数量、价格或水平的上升；在英式英语中也是“加薪”的日常说法，常用来形容逐渐或稳定的变化。

  There has been a steady rise in vegetable prices this year.

  今年蔬菜价格持续稳步上涨。

• hike 本词

  Informal, often journalistic word for a sudden, sharp increase, typically in prices, taxes, or rates imposed by an authority; implies the change is large and often unwelcome.

  非正式、常见于新闻报道的说法，指由当局施行的价格、税率等的突然大幅上涨；暗示变化幅度大，且往往令人不悦。

  The government announced a hike in fuel taxes to fund new roads.

  政府宣布上调燃油税以资助新道路建设。

All three mean an increase. Raise is American for a pay increase; the verb 'raise' meaning 'lift up' is not compared. Rise means any increase, also British for a pay rise. Hike means a sudden, large price increase, not the verb 'go hiking'.

这三个词都能表示数量、价格或水平的“上升”，但语气和典型搭配不同：raise 常用于美式英语中的“加薪”，rise 是更通用的说法，在英式英语中也常表示加薪，两者语气都比较中性；hike 则强调“突然且大幅”的上涨，多用于价格、税率等，语气较随意，常带有不满的意味。此处不比较 raise 作动词表示“举起、提高”，也不比较 hike 作动词表示“徒步、远足”等其他义项。
