Common Collocations

Usage Notes

"选拔" implies a formal or organized selection process, often competitive. It differs from the more general "选择" (to choose/select) by focusing on selecting the best among many, often with evaluation criteria.

Avoid confusing "选拔" with "" alone, which means to pull out or uproot; here, "" is part of a compound emphasizing the act of 'pulling out' the best candidates.

"选拔" is typically used as a verb but can also imply the selection event or process itself.
