Is woken you up correct grammar?

"Woken" is not grammatically correct in this sentence. It should be "woke you up".

Here's why:

* "Woke" is the past participle of the verb "to wake".

* "Woken" is used in passive constructions like "I was woken up" or "The alarm has woken me".

* In the sentence "Woken you up", you're using the past participle as a past tense verb, which is incorrect.

The correct way to say it is "woke you up", using the past tense of the verb "to wake".
