loose
vs
lose


Loose is an adjective. If something isn't fixed properly or it doesn't fit, because it's too large, it's loose.

For example:-

My headphones weren't working, because a wire was loose.

Lose is a verb that means to no longer possess something because you do not know where it is, or because it has been taken away from you.

For example:

A lot of people will lose their job if there is a recession.
My husband is always losing his keys.
I need to lose weight.

I agree! See too many people "loosing" weight

LOL so what everything has been posted a million times. The same questions over and over. I don't care. It's fine with me. I chose to read it or not, answer or not, it's a forum, do what you want.

Anyway, also once you lose weight you can have loose skin. It happens. Another topic that comes up again and again like everything else around here. So what?

Have an awesome day OP.
