'Fell' 是不及物動詞，主詞必須是「掉落」的物體本身。若要表達「使某物掉落」，應使用及物動詞 'drop'。

'Fell' 是過去式，其過去分詞是 'fallen'。在完成式（have/has/had + 過去分詞）中必須使用 'fallen'。
×The temperature will fell tomorrow.
✓The temperature will fall tomorrow.
'Fell' 是過去式，在未來式或現在式中應使用原形 'fall'。

當 'fell' 作為及物動詞時，意思是「砍倒；擊倒」，其過去式和過去分詞是 'felled'。在被動語態中需使用過去分詞 'felled'。
