I'm a native english speaker (American, in case there's a cultural 
difference here) and I've known this since I was a kid. I was actually 
quite baffled by your post; I thought you had never heard the word 
"dice" before, since it didn't even occur to me that you couldn't have 
heard "die" before.

If you're playing a game with one die, this is the word you use. "Roll 
the die."
