Struktur
(A)VStem + [上「あ」]げる
Bedeutung
Watch out for the transitive and intransitive use of 上げる/上がる here.上げる is done with an actor finishing the action, while 上がる is used without someone finishing the action.Another point of interest here is the past tense usage of 上げた versus 上がった which can be confusing when you are describing something in the past.
