Hi! Are these two sentences correct? Thanks, Fulvio
1. He had many tragedies in his life.
2. Many tragedies happened in his life.
I think that your sentences should be in the perfect perfect tense. 'He' can still suffer from a lot of tragedies in both the present and the future.

2. Many tragedies happened in his life.
They are grammatically correct, but not completely idiomatic.
He has experienced a lot of tragedy in his life.
