I'm sorry, I don't understand if you are asking about the use of the word "whether" or asking about whether the sentence "Roses are red" is a correct. I would like to confirm whether roses are [really] red and violets are [really] blue. That would be fine.

I was asking about using the word "if"
Sentence "roses are red" was just an example
What I really want is to ask for confirmation of several issues (points) but I don't want put everything in the same sentence
