If you gave the alias the same name as the command, just use the full
path to the command to call it directly. But in this case, using a
different name for the alias makes much more sense. I have these two
aliases defined

alias smerge='sudo emerge --update --reinstall changed-use --ask @system'
alias wmerge='sudo emerge --update --deep --reinstall changed-use --ask 
--with-bdeps y @world'
