In some cases, they're the same. "I have 2 choices" = "I have 2 options."

"Choice" can also be an action though. You can say "make a choice" (I made a choice to eat healthier today) but you can't do the same with "option."

They are synonyms Cici. They both have the same/similar meaning.

Hi Cici,

Choice can be turned into a very - to choose. However, option is always a noun, you would have to say, I chose that option, or I picked that option, or I had that option.

Also, I think choice is used more for casual, everyday things. For example,

I have a choice between two apples.

I chose to wear black pants instead of white pants.

Option is more often used when talking technically, like

I have the option of buying or leasing my car.

I want the option of being able to refund it.

But the two are pretty similar!

"Choice" is slightly less formal than option. "Choice" is most often used for "the freedom to choose", although you can sometimes also use option.

As John said they can be used as synonyms. But to give you an idea here is an example.

Let'a say you are at the supermarket and you want to buy some fruits. You are at the aisle where the fruits and vegetables are. In this position you have many OPTIONS to CHOOSE from. Hypothetically, let's say you are not sure what to buy. You have narrowed it down to 2 options: APPLES or ORANGES. In the end you have CHOSEN apples. The apples became your CHOICE. A choice is a decision you have to make.

So if someone says 'I have so many choices' is like saying 'i have so many options to choose from'

I hope this helped Cici
