Alternative example: 他犯了一个让他颜面尽失的战术错误,只得引咎辞职。

Editor:
1) "lost" can mean "don't know where he/she/it is" so I added some context.

2) "lost" is probably a strong enough word without adding "utterly" or "totally".
For example, here are some actual translations:
- 防風、綠化功能盡失,... "they lose their function as windbreaks and their visual attractiveness"
- 氣勢也已不再,生命力盡失。 "it also lost its grandeur and its vitality."
Diff:
# 盡失 尽失 [jin4 shi1] /Total or utter lost/
+ 盡失 尽失 [[jin4shi1]] /(of hope, appetite, authority etc) to be lost/
