- Loose - Baggy, slack, unrestricted, flowing, roomy, voluminous, ample
- Lose - misplace, be unable to find, mislay, drop, fail, suffer defeat, shake off, evade, free yourself, be bereaved.
The word "lose" has many many meanings as opposed to "loose" which has only one basic meaning.
People; please be aware of this very very common spelling mistake. I've come across so many instances of this mistake in so many posts!
Sorry, to sound like a real snob, but as I mentioned earlier, it's one of my pet peeves! :)
p.s. I may be wrong, but I don't think the word "looses" exists anyway!

actually, it does exist.
I'm at a loss to understand why you think it doesn't...
:)
My pet peeve is advice/ advise.
All papers in Sri Lanka dont seem to know the difference!
Another has to be the the superfluous descriptions most people use varying from "super" luxury apartments to VVIP's to "extremely" great batsmen. Dont you think that the added descriptions are unnecessary?
I hear you on this. As Dictator of the Spelling Nazi and a person with borderline OCD (at least I think so) not just lose and loose but any spelling mistakes make me cringe.
I am so happy to see other obsessed spelling freaks out there. English is my second language and I am still bothered by mispellings even when it is your second language HOW MANY ONLINE DICTIONARIES ARE THERE PEOPLE, look into them! Anyway, ran into your blog searching the difference between loses and losses, basically I'm looking for the plural of loss, is it with 2 ss or 1? Thanks for your help!

Have you ever considered about adding a little bit more than just your articles?
I mean, what you say is valuable and everything. But think of
if you added some great visuals or video clips to
give your posts more, "pop"! Your content is excellent but with pics and video clips, this blog could certainly be one of the best in its niche.
Amazing blog!
