Tod m (strong, genitive Todes or Tods, plural Tode)

1. death

• Like Leben, this noun is usually used with the definite article.
• Beyond set expressions such as zum Tode verurteilt or sich zu Tode langweilen, Tod is a fairly exceptional noun in that the archaic dative-e is still applied productively to some extent. Thus, seit seinem Tode is possible in formal style alongside seit seinem Tod, without sounding odd, as is otherwise mostly the case outside of expressions. This does not apply to compounds, however.
