FYI: It's "Lose", Rhymes with "Choose"
This is the thread to help correct the many misspellings and butcherings of the King's English found here on the forum.
One of the many errors I see is people spelling "lose" as "loose". I suppose its because "choose" is spelled the way it is.
So for the record: "lose" rhymes with "choose", "loose" rhymes with "goose".
Used in a sentence: "I will LOSE my temper if people CHOOSE to live as LOOSE as a GOOSE."
Feel free to address any other common mistakes found here on AFF. If we're going to be legalistic about something, let's be grammar legalists!
