If we're allowed to make modifications here then it should really be lose => looze and loose => luce

[irishcoffee]

I think that would make "loosely" not work out. Lucely/lucly catch the hard C there. I'm good with loozing/loozer, looks kind of funny though.

[Zambyte]

I would not pronounce lucely with a hard C

[kaashif]

Lucely absolutely does not catch the hard c. Surely there is no word in the English language where "ce" has a hard c, only loanwords like celt.

Lucezly

So, technically we are allowed to make modifications! We just can't expect others to adhere to our modifications :)

[taffydavid]

Luce is already a word in English, if a little obscure
