By Shumaila Saeed || Updated on December 25, 2023
"Fall" is a verb meaning to drop or come down freely under the influence of gravity; "Fell" is the past tense of "fall," or as a verb, it can mean to cut down a tree.
Fall vs. Fell

Key Differences

"Fall" typically denotes the action of moving downwards under the influence of gravity, applicable to both animate and inanimate objects. "Fell," when used in relation to "fall," is its simple past tense, signifying the action has already occurred. For instance, "I fall every time I ice skate" versus "I fell while I was ice skating yesterday."

The versatility of "fall" extends to metaphorical uses, such as in phrases like "fall in love" or "fall into despair," where it indicates entering a state or condition. "Fell," in its other meaning, refers to cutting down something, particularly trees, as in "to fell a tree," which is unrelated to the action of falling.

In terms of grammatical usage, "fall" can be used in various tenses to depict ongoing or future actions (e.g., "will fall," "is falling"). In contrast, "fell" as the past tense of "fall" is confined to past actions, but as a separate verb, it remains consistent in all tenses (e.g., "will fell," "is felling").

Seasonal references often use "fall," especially in American English, to denote the autumn season. Conversely, "fell" does not share this dual meaning and remains strictly a verb either in its relation to "fall" or in its separate meaning of cutting down.

The pronunciation of "fall" and "fell" also differs slightly, with "fall" having a longer 'a' sound compared to the sharper 'e' in "fell." This distinction is crucial in spoken English to convey the correct meaning, especially when the context doesn't automatically clarify the intended verb.
