掀起 (xiān qǐ) is a verb that means "to lift, to raise; to surge; to set off or start (a movement, etc.)" It is pronounced as "xiān qǐ" with the first tone on both characters.
Example 1: 他掀起了桌子上的杂志。(Tā xiān qǐ le zhuō zi shàng de zá zhì.) He lifted the magazines on the table.
Example 2:这场暴风雨掀起了海浪。(Zhè chǎng bào fēng yǔ xiān qǐ le hǎi làng.) This storm caused the waves to surge.
Example 3: 他的演讲掀起了一股反对浪潮。(Tā de yǎn jiǎng xiān qǐ le yī gǔ fǎn duì làng cháo.) His speech started a wave of opposition.
Example 4: 这部电影掀起了一股热潮。(Zhè bù diàn yǐng xiān qǐ le yī gǔ rè cháo.) This movie set off a craze.
In these examples, 掀起 (xiān qǐ) is used to describe the action of lifting, raising, or starting something. It can also be used figuratively to describe the beginning or initiation of a movement or trend.
