it makes sense

This morning, while listening to a song, I realized why people use 'loose' when they meant 'lose.'

'Loose' looks like it should rhyme with 'choose.' Alas, it does not. 'Lose' does. Because English is weird.

You know what else is odd? ‘Goose,’ ‘moose,’ and ‘loose’ all rhyme. ‘Choose’ and ‘lose’ don’t rhyme with any of those. And then there’s ‘chose,’ which I’ve seen when people meant ‘choose.’ And ‘chose’ doesn’t rhyme with any of the other words in this post. (Okay, it does, but not any of the words in quotation marks.)

So, yeah. ‘Loose’ vs ‘lose’ has been bugging me for a while, and I’m just glad to finally get the mistake.
