" also if my sentence is not right please correct it. thank you If he falls will he be dead? Yes, fall takes an 's' at the end because the subject is in the 3rd person singular.

  • " also if my sentence is not right please correct it.
  • thank you If he falls will he be dead?
  • Yes, fall takes an 's' at the end because the subject is in the 3rd person singular.
  • I wouldn't put a question mark at the end of the sentence: if you're asking a question you should invert 'will he'.
  • Some would insist on a comma as well.

Won't he die if he falls?
If he falls, will he die?
If he falls, won't he die?
