if I die tomorrow?

If I die tomorrow, I would never regret.

well-known phase. and this someone askd me about.
he thought the 'would' should be changed to 'will',
so the whole meaning would be more emphatic or definite.

What if we used 'will' instead of 'would'?
and what's the meaning of 'would' in here?

Hi

I don't disagree with vsuresh, but you can use the present narrative in a conditional sentence and then follow on with the simple future

- If I die tomorrow, I will not regret
