选项 (xuǎn xiàng)
This word combines the syllables xuǎn and xiàng.
The first syllable combines the initial x with the final üan (the two dots of ü are omitted after the initial x), and uses the third tone, which falls and then rises. The second syllable combines the initial x with the compound final iang, and uses the fourth tone, which is a falling tone.
选项 (xuǎn xiàng) is used when you are choosing between different choices, such as in a menu, a form, or a settings page.
