Nobody is perfect though but it has been more like a trait or call it a culture the way people mis-spell words nowadays.

First, it was lose and loose then I've started seeing chose being mis-used as choose. Their and there later joined the team. Whatever happened to good reading though. The most disheartening part is that, these spelling errors are made by some of the epistle writers too who are avid readers and writers and that's sure going to influence some of their readers' spelling habit.

Some designers keep abusing the two words too. I could remember seeing I've got nothing to loose boldly written on a shirt. Gosh! That ought to be lose. And that's how it continues growing viral...

Urrgh

lose - /luːz/
verb
1. be deprived of or cease to have or retain (something).
2. become unable to find (something or someone).
3. fail to win (a game or contest).
4. earn less (money) than one is spending or has spent.
5. waste or fail to take advantage of (time or an opportunity).

And loose- /lo͞os/
adjective
1. not firmly or tightly fixed in place; detached or able to be detached.
2. (of a garment) not fitting tightly or closely.
3. relaxed; physically slack.
verb
1. set free; release.

The words loose and lose are mixed up in writing; for some reason, many people write loose when they really mean lose.
But there’s no reason to lose your mind worrying about this, just lose the extra o!

Loose
Loose is an adjective, the opposite of tightor contained.
My shoes are loose
I have a loose tooth
There’s a dog running loose in the
street

Lose
Lose is a verb that means to suffer the loss of, to miss.
I win! You lose!
Don’t lose your keys
I never lose bets.

The Bottom Line
Simple carelessness leads people to write loose when they mean lose. Just remember that lose has one o, and loose has two. Start with loose, lose an o, and what do you get? Lose!
