You can picture decision as the moment a fork in the road becomes a single chosen path: many options were open, you weighed them, and then you cut them down to one. The Latin root 'decidere' literally means 'to cut off' — once you decide, the other roads are cut away.
From the word’s history
From Latin 'decidere', 'to cut off / cut down', from 'de-' (off) + 'caedere' (to cut) — choosing is cutting the other options away.
源自拉丁文 decidere「切掉、砍下」，由 de-（離開）＋ caedere（切）組成——做選擇就是把其他選項切掉。
