Losing or Loosing?

Peace · #1 June 17, 2009, 06:10 PM

I am getting confused now a days. Although our first language is not English and it is not important to write perfect English to express opinion, one common mistake appears to be losing (or loosing?).
Could the moderators please make this thread sticky so that we don’t keep losing (or loosing)?

Losing. Loose = dhila.

A lot of people make this mistake. It's annoying.

Stop bugging me.
I know that my English is poor but that does not mean that I can not continue to learn and help others to learn.
My above post has no grammatical mistakes but you still failed to understand it. What does that tell you?
Dyslexia or poor IQ?

Rifat · #12 June 19, 2009, 10:37 PM

can peaceful people take criticism and not feel offended by it?

If someone is unable to comprehend a sentence in english that does not equate to Dyslexia or poor IQ. That just means that person has a poor understanding of the english language. Hence you implying my lack of comprehension for your post equating to me being Dyslexic or lacking in IQ tells something about you, doesnt it ?

I think you would be better to have implied that I have difficulty comprehending proper english. Although you have claimed that your post has no grammatical errors, if I am being anal and check the post then it has errors. Now be a good boy and learn what that error is. Since I have trouble understanding or comprehending english it would not be correct for me to point out your error so learn it from someone who you think can teach you something. buijenni bhaijan

Run-on sentence

I failed English twice; but I still got laid for an English poem I wrote to a girl. She said, she will never spend that $100 that I wrote the poem on.

Ha. If only the world was full of men like you, and women like her.... the days of the "world's oldest profession" would be numbered.

You have to understand the gravity of sex before understanding the reason behind your question. But since you inquired + you are in college - I give you 1 year tops to report back.
