come off/apart/loose
Helll, there

If you, by accident, pull a backpack strap or a hood drawstring apart, what could you say?

The strap/drawstring came off, apart or loose?

And to fix it? "I need to thread the strap/drawstring" or "I need to get this drawstring(strap) back in"

What would you say?

Thank yoi

Answer

All the options that you wrote are correct, Jordana.

Answer

All of the answers are okay. I would say, "I need to fix the backpack strap."

Answer

Any of your answers seem okay to me.

I would probably say "the strap fell off" and "I need to reattach the strap" or "I need to tie the strap" (if I'm going to make a knot)

I probably wouldn't say "thread the strap" although the meaning is still clear in most cases.
