Whats the Difference between Choose & Chose?

Question

And helpful hints to tell the dfference? HOw do you memory this? (i have to teach the class the difference and helpful stuff to help them know!) The people in that class are really stupid....

Answer 1

Choose is like to pick something Chose is the past tense form of choose so it means to already have picked something.

Answer 2

In other words, chose is the past tense of choose. Today, you choose--yesterday, you chose.

Answer 3

When you choose something, it is now in the present, if you chose something, you already did it. So present and past.

Answer 4

choose is present tense. chose is past tense.

"I choose to respond to your question at this time."

"Yesterday, I chose not to log into Yahoo."

The only way to remember it is to understand the way each definition sounds, then use phonetic spelling techniques.

Answer 5

chose means you chose something. .
you chose the blue top instead of the red one.
choose means to choose between the cake or the pie.

Answer 6

choose is like, "i choose to throw a pie in your face" so its in a future (99% of the time its future) or present pretense (present pretense is what is happening right now and future pretense is what is going to happen)

chose is like, "i chose to eat the pie after i wiped it off of my face and the floor" so its in a past pretense (something that already has happened)

Answer 7

Sarah's correct. you will choose to do thing, you chose to do thing.
