Talk:I lost my backpack

I lost my...
There are "I lost my..." phrasebook entries for backpack, bag, glasses, handbag, keys, and wallet. To me the tense seems wrong: unless you are talking about some past history ("I lost my bag in 1983"), it should be "I've lost my...". Is that just a British thing, or not?

 * Yep, it's a British thing. Americans use both, but tend toward the simple past. —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 03:57, 24 March 2017 (UTC)
