用法
- A candidate - the person chosen or considered for a role - 他是这个职位的最佳人选 (tā shì zhège zhíwèi de zuìjiā rénxuǎn) he's the best candidate for this position.
- Refers to the choice-of-person itself, often 合适的人选 (suitable candidate), 物色人选 (scout for candidates).
- Contrast 候选人 (hòuxuǎnrén, a formally nominated candidate, e.g. in elections); 人选 is broader and often informal selection.
