选择的英文意思是“to choose”。这个词来源于拉丁文的“Cēligere”，意思是“to select, to pick out”。例如：

I choose to go to the party.（我选择去参加聚会。）

She had to choose between her career and her family.（她不得不在事业和家庭之间作出选择。）

The children were allowed to choose their own snacks.（孩子们可以自己选择零食。）

总之，选择的意思就是“to make a decision about what to do from a range of possibilities”。希望这对你有帮助。
