What am I reading these days - John Grisham's Playing for Pizza....
though I better be reading Rita Mulcahy's PMP Prep Guide!
Loose English
People often confuse between similar sounding words while talking or writing. We often see people incorrectly using ‘there’ in place of ‘their’ or ‘your’ in place of ‘you are’, etc. However, I haven’t seen any other word used incorrectly, more frequently than the word ‘loose’. I have seen people using the word ‘loose’ in place of ‘lose’ in personal emails, official emails, word documents; and today I saw it incorrectly used in Oracle User Guide.
