(loose rhymes with goose and means the opposite of "tight"; lose rhymes
with use and means the opposite of "gain" - it is a very frequent typo
to see people put too many 'o's when they meant a variant of "lose")
Unfortunately rhymes are useless to non-native speakers. :) A good way
to remember it is to think of 'loosen' and 'lost' rather than 'loose'
and 'lose', which are pronounced differently and hence easier to
associate with the right number of 'o's.
