Black Widow then used Hawkeye's own grappling arrow to secure him to the cliff while she hanged in the air, only held back by Hawkeye's hand.

In Avengers: Endgame, Black Widow's sacrifice represents the ultimate act of redemption. She willingly gave her life to obtain Soul Stone and ensure that her friends have a chance to undo the damage wrought by Thanos. Her death was not in vain, as it ultimately led to the Avengers' victory.
For one of the closest friends in Black Widow's life, having to fight over who would sacrifice themself was an emotionally draining task. Natasha's last words were “Let me go,” before letting go of Clint's hand and falling to her death off the cliff on Vormir.

Why didn't Black Widow get a funeral?

According to Johansson, her character's death was so definitive, it would take a "miracle" for Black Widow to be brought back logically. When asked if she would revive the character, Johansson said, "I would have...it would be a miracle. It would be a real Marvel miracle. It would be a marvel.
Summary. Fans determined that Natasha Romanoff's death in Avengers: Endgame occurred on Oct. 16, 2023, based on the Marvel Cinematic Universe Wiki's timeline and the heroes' time-traveling adventures.
It doesn't appear Marvel has any plans to rewrite or undo this storyline, so as it stands in the “present day” of the Marvel Cinematic Universe Black Widow is officially dead.
Black Widow is dead. Returning the soul stone doesn't bring her back and neither will using them all. If it was possible Thanos would have bring Gamora back as he did love her as a daughter. The only way we will ever see Black Widow in the MCU again is either from a different universe, flashback or prequel.
There are two possible explanations - either the Red Room training was so thorough her accent was embedded naturally rather than taught, or Natasha decided to carrying on using her U.S. voice as a way of escaping the emotional trauma of her previous life.
Natasha chose to be the sacrifice and so, Romanoff was 39 years old when she died, but the time travel in Avengers: Endgame creates a little bit of a complication. Romanoff and Barton used the Quantum Realm to journey back to 2014 so they could beat Thanos (Josh Brolin) to the Soul Stone by 4 years.
At the end of the film, Captain America does go back to a time before Black Widow died, but the problem with bringing back a Black Widow from that time is: 1) she may not want to go into her future with him, and 2) he doesn't know how to bring someone from the past back to the future.

Bucky Barnes is one of the few figures who, while coming from the Red Room, Natasha trusts and cherishes. They first develop a romantic relationship when Barnes trains her as his Winter Soldier persona in the Red Room, though they are eventually split by their superiors.
Scarlet Witch's fate has received a terrible update as Marvel has confirmed that the character died in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Audiences were curious about Wanda Maximoff's fate toward the end of the movie since it was unclear.
But the film itself contains a clue: Thanos killed his daughter Gamora in Infinity War to obtain the stone, and she's alive and well by the end of Endgame. She survives because she time travels from the past, skipping around the part of her history where Thanos sacrificed her.
The original Avengers went outside the Compound, taking some time to mourn Romanoff by the lake. Thor suggested that they could use the Infinity Stones they had collected to bring her back, but Barton told them that, according to the stone's Guardian, she couldn't come back.
We know Natasha's ultimate fate though -- she sacrifices her life to obtain the Soul Stone and undo Thanos' genocidal Snap in Avengers: Endgame. We see the fallout of her decision in this movie's post-credits scene.
Back in July 2021, Johansson told Fatherly that she "has no plans to return as" the assassin-turned-Avenger, who seemingly takes her final bow in Black Widow. "I feel really satisfied with this film," she said. "It feels like a great way to go out for this chapter of my Marvel identity."
