Your sentence was not added because the following already exists.
I'm fairly certain that this is not a question.
Also, how would one ask "Is the rat alive or dead?" in such a way that "Yes" is not a valid answer?
This appears to be a question of the type: What is the truth-function relationship between the two statements: "The rat is alive.", "The rat is dead."?

How do I edit my translation?
@rpglover64: just click on your translation again and you'll be offered to edit the text.
@kebukebu: correct.
I could answer
{nagi'e} -> "the rat is not alive, is dead"
{gi'enai} -> "the rat is alive, is not dead"
It's easy to remember as you negate the false bridi.
{nagi'enai} is probably for a Shroedinger (or a zombie) rat :)
And {gi'onai} if you don't want (or can't) tell if it's alive or dead.
