choices
SayCHOY-siz/ˈt͡ʃɔɪsɪz/
- 1Plural of choice.
Voters faced difficult choices between several flawed candidates.
Her career choices surprised everyone who knew her in school.
Note
A regular plural, made by adding -s after the silent final -e, but not every meaning of choice has one. The plural belongs to the countable senses: options faced, decisions made, things picked out. The power to choose is a mass noun with no plural, so freedom of choice stays singular. When choices appears, it means several separate selections or options, not a greater amount of liberty.
