Okay, I don’t know any other way to explain this except to pull out the boring stuff…
- LOOSE
is an adjective (it describes nouns—people, places, things, ideas); examples: I have baggy, loose pants. Need some loose pocket change? - LOSE
is a verb (it shows action or a state of being); examples: I need to lose weight. I think I’ll lose my mind.
Look, I don’t sit on the toilet and read the dictionary (okay, I do), but that’s neither here nor there (a future topic)…my point is that I’m not obsessed with grammar, but sometimes I see the same mistake over and over, and I feel it’s a cosmic calling, of sorts, telling me that it’s time
to mention it, somewhere.
