There are two different words, LOOSE and LOSE.

LOOSE - not tightly fitted (verb forms "to loose" set free - "to loosen" make loose)

LOSE - to forfeit possession, or to fail

Examples : "My belt was loose." "I always loosen the knot first."

Examples : "You can lose your wallet very easily." "We didn't want to lose the game."
