Accidentally putting something in the wrong place so that you can’t find it when you need it.
उपयोग और बारीकियां
Mostly informal and often used for everyday things like keys, phone, or glasses. Not as strong as 'lose'—when you 'misplace' something, you expect to find it later. Common mistake: confusing 'misplacing' with 'losing' (which often means it's gone for good).
