单词 choose
释义
choose
(once / 45 pages)
v

The hardest part of adopting a dog from a shelter is when you have to choose which one to bring home with you. When you pick out one pup from the mass of barking canines, that's the dog you choose.
Any time you decide on one thing over another — whether it's a seat on a plane, a new pair of shoes, or who you want to marry — you choose it. The Old English word that choose comes from is ceosan, which means something closer to "taste."
WORD FAMILY
choose: chooses, choosing, chose, chosen+/chosen: chosens, ill-chosen
