The words 'choose' and 'select' are both very common verbs with nearly the same meaning.

However, 'select' has a slightly narrower meaning and is used less frequently than 'choose'.

Both words can mean to pick one thing or person from a group. For example:

She chose a nice red apple.

She selected a nice red apple.

I was selected to represent my school at table tennis.

I was chosen to represent my school at table tennis.

However, when we discuss choosing to do or be something, we don't use 'select'. For example:

When I was 19, I chose to become a teacher.

It was such a sunny day I chose to go the long way home.

He is selecting (or choosing) a piece and choosing where to move

There are also one or two subtle differences in meaning between the words... but you'll have to listen to the programme to find out more about that!

You will also hear William and Li discuss just why there are so many synonyms in English.
