[QUOTE="Isurus, post: 462098, member: 43792"] [PET RANT=on]"Loose" means unbound, untied, unrestricted. It means the opposite of bound or tight. Derivatives include "loosen", "looser" (more loose, more free), "loosed" (set free), "loosing" (the process of setting something free). "Lose" means to come to be without, or to be defeated. It is the opposite of "win". Derivatives include "loser" (someone who has lost, opposite of "winner"), "losing" (opposite of "winning"). Whenever I see someone use the word "loosing" (a word most people have probably never ever used in real life) when they should be using "losing", or "looser" instead of "loser", it distracts from the text and gives the impression that the author is uneducated, ignorant, and lacks credibility. Just saying.[/PET RANT] [/QUOTE]
