Near the top of Lesson 4.8 are two verbs:
.. Se lever .. to get out of bed
.. Se réveiller .. to wake up
Further down the same lesson the verb Se lever changes meaning in the following sentence:
.. Tu te lèves de bonne humeur. .. You wake up in a good mood.
I wonder why the meaning change; the dictionary only suggests that Se lever refers to something or someone rising or getting up, but it doesn't point to awakening. Please explain.
Se lever and Se réveiller

Salut Diana!
Actually you are right but in English we tend to say "you wake/woke up in a good mood" and not "you get/got up in a good mood". So the meaning of the word didn't actually change, it is simply that the expression in English uses a different verb to French.
I hope this helps and keep up the good work!
