What is the difference between a tidal wave and a rogue wave?

A tidal wave (AKA a Tsunami) is caused by an earthquake. It is more of a wall of water and a rise of sea level. when a tidal wave is coming, water will be sucked out from shore rapidly. Tidal waves usually aren't more than 3 feet in open water because in open water it is usually more than 600 feet deep. Rogue Waves can occur in open water and aren't usually caused by earthquakes but just waves that build up. Rogue waves come undetected. Tidal waves have signs. Both are huge in size, up to 100+ ft. Tidal Waves tend to crash on shore while Rogue Waves are violent waves in open water.
