When did lose become loose? (n/t) on 13:41 - Jan 13 by TheMover
Around the same time that our became are and bought became brought.
Social media has a lot to answer for.
I don't think it has anything to do with social media. Poor spelling and grammar has been in place for a long time. In fact it is probably partly due to the formation of common rules around it as before that people spelt as they chose and it was accepted! Which is quite a difficult admission for someone who is quite particular about it!
