Lose vs Loose

[Peter Lambert]

now that I know how many people are bothered by something as simple as your vs. you're I'm going to do it all the time.

This one bugs me. Not only do they have different meanings, they have different pronunciations. Your is one sylable, like yore, and you're is two syllables, rhymes with sewer. But the most annoying part of your-you're is that many times the sentence will have a valid but completely different meaning when the wrong word is used.

He said he can't argue with me because it is my right to be bugged by that sort of typo.

Then you started to say something about his retarded smileyface but didn't finish the thought.

Feel free to laugh at yourself  .

kireinaha you know only a native speaker can understand another native speaker.
By the way, the correct form is still "lose" pronounced "loose".

Clearly you didn't get my joke, since I had to explain it to you. Who should be laughing?

Nice try.

Alsmost the same as ( of course and ofcourse) my grammar is broken.

When I was a kid, my English teacher would dismiss anyone from class for using "gonna (going to)" "wanna" and etc.

Cannot imagine her screams when she encounters this "lose loose" dilemma.

Although my English sucks donkey balls, despite me having best grades at that time. We're living in a multicultural internet age. Spend two months on 4chan/Reddit and try to spellcheck yourself afterwards.

I don't see any similarity???

(of course spelled ofcourse) is making a compound word out of two words in a way which is not done in English (at least, I can't think of any words where of is used as a prefix), and the resulting word is not a valid English word and so this mistake will be caught by any spellcheck.

(lose spelled loose) is spelling a word more phonetically than the correct spelling, and the resulting word is a valid English word, so spellcheck will not catch it.

Often?

Though it is not a compound word, since it is just an extended form of oft, as far as I know. But looks very similar to what you can't think of...

Often is not derived from 'of ten', it is, as you rightly point out, related to oft. Thanks for emphasizing my point for me.
