Why is 'looser' the world's most difficult word to spell correctly?
 

Besides the irony of it - why can't people grasp that it's 'Loser' not 'Looser'? Every forum on the Internet has many threads where somebody is throwing it back in somebody else's face that they can't even spell 'loser' correctly YET nobody seems to learn, as many people today spelling 'looser' as ever.

because some of us aren't native English speakers? but thanks for pointing it out ;)

Even English speaking people screw that up. It is absolutely amazing to me.

Loser = someone who lost a bet, for example.

Looser = My god damn shoelaces are to fucking tight, I need the motherfuckers to be looser!

Because it sounds as "looser" :2 cents:

yeah but i bet you have been on forums where you've seen people pointing out the wrong and correct spelling ......... i don't buy the english as a second language excuse, as many native english speakers spell it wrong as non-native english speakers.

I just brought a new car.

What did you end up with?

This.
Although I wonder how nobody misspells Wednesday into Wensday if speaking about how it sounds :1orglaugh

And most important because it sounds different than any other *oser. For instance poser sounds the "correct" way and loser is an exception.

I didn't. Brought instead of bought is another spelling mistake that makes me want to slap someone till they can get it right :disgust

I remember entire class was arguing with english teacher about "Wednesday" spelling (Soviet Union school) LOL

your you'r

...island

soo, you're riding uphill in a canoe and your wheel falls off, how many pancakes does it take to fit in a dog house?

I brought a new car your looser

Generally people who are good at english and spelling aren't very good with numbers, then again, most people hate math.

Lose: You are losing your mind.
Loose: Your pussy is loose.

Or:

Your pussy is looser than I would like it to be, you loser.

Seriously, people are getting stoopider by the second.

I have more important things to worry about

I've found that any time I make an attempt at a different language it's almost a celebration that I'm trying to the person I'm talking with normally. They'll still correct you but at the same time be gracious about it so to not make you feel like an idiot. Why has it become commonplace in english speaking parts to mock people who don't get it right? It's not exactly an easy language compared to a handful of others.

As for domestics messing it up? I could care less, we're posting on a message board not writing term papers here...

No matter how hard I try, I still get worst and worse mixed up, and sometimes past and passed. I always have to double check it in my head.

is it you'r or you're ?:winkwink:

Too fucking tight, not to or two fucking tight.
You're welcome

Where to begin. Losers can't spell losers. With that, others are debating this strange and fascinating mystery.

I spell it wrong sometimes, cause I'm typing fast.

When I look at the text before I post, it doesn't show up with a wavy red line underneath it, cause it isn't actually a spelling mistake.

So in a large piece of text it disappears... Sorry :(

demolished OP :winkwink:

typo?

.

I was reading a book on exercise and stretching and the author repeatedly used 'loosing weight'.

It's often Americans who get it wrong.
They also can't spell "weird".

What?

....

I suspect the missing "O" from too ("my shoelaces were to tight") got stolen and they tried to hide it somewhere, and it ended up in looser where they hoped we wouldn't notice it.

Either that or 30% of the world is selectively dyslexic.

prolly, probably.

This one even shows up in double posts.
