死者 /shi sha/ means 'the dead, dead ones, the deceased, casualty', both plural and singular.

When you want to say e.g "He is dead", in Japanese continuous form of the verb 死ぬ /shi nu/ is used, depending on time it could be present or past. So 死んでいる /shin de i ru/ (informal: 死んでる /shin de ru/ _ formal: 死んでいます /shin de i ma su/) is the Japanese equivalent for that sense of 'dead'.
