The Chinese word 选择 (xuǎnzé) means "to choose" or "to select". It is composed of two characters: 选 (xuǎn), which means "to choose" or "to select", and 择 (zé), which means "to choose" or "to select". The word 选择 is therefore a compound word that means "to choose" or "to select".The character 选 (xuǎn) is derived from the oracle bone script, which is the earliest known form of Chinese writing. In the oracle bone script, the character 选 is depicted as a hand holding a stick.

In the oracle bone script, the character 择 is depicted as a person standing at a crossroads.

It is composed of two characters, 选 (xuǎn) and 择 (zé), which both mean "to choose" or "to select".
