1 No. My head hit a tree (e.g. I walked into a tree). 2 Yes (e.g. the tree fell and hit me).

Hi Helen, You could say: "I hit my head against a tree" You wouldn't say your first suggestions because the first one suggests that your head did the action. The second one suggests that the tree did the action, so you could say "I was hit by a tree during a storm when it fell on me" or "A tree fell on me and hit my head". You could also say "I walked into a tree and hit my head". I hope this helps. Regards, Sinead

You could say "I fell off my bike and my head hit a tree" or "I was running through the woods and my head hit a branch of a tree". You wouldn't normally say "hit into", however you could say "I fell off my bike and my head smashed into a tree". Ouch!
