This has been annoying me for quite a bit, I've looked on google, tried online Japanese translations but I'm still not sure about Ochimashita. I came across this site with Japanese lessons and one of the example sentences is

パスポートが落ちましたよ!

Which is "You've dropped your passport", I'm guessing 落ちます means drop or to drop, so does this sentence make any sense?

あなたのペンで落ちってください

"Please drop your pen"

This also got me think about another thing, there is a word I hear when someone is warning someone else about their footing it sounds like おちすって
and I was wondering if there was some connection to 落ちます like the meaning is "watch out you might drop!". Am I near something or far off?

Any help is appreciated 😅

落ちる(polite form; 落ちます): a intransitive verb
落とす(polite form; 落とします): a transitive verb

So, パスポートが落ちましたよ! literally means "your passport has dropped!", and can also be said as パスポート(を)落としましたよ!

so does this sentence make any sense?
あなたのペンで落ちってください
"Please drop your pen"
It would be (あなたの)ペンを落としてください. I couldn't imagine the situation, though.😌

Probably it would be 落ちるって!, and yes, it's a warning like "watch out you might drop!"👍
