Vocabulary
to approve of somebody's choice of/in
Hi!
Is there any difference in using "of" or "in" in this construction?
For example, "google" tells that both are correct:
I approve of your choice of/in music.
But it's just with "music". With "wine" "google" only gives me a construction with "in".
So what's the difference?
Thank you for your help!

indeed, it seems that both are correct, with more emphasis on using "of" might want to check: "approve" vs "approve of"

Hi guys,
It seems to me that perhaps 'in' refers more to the range of choice, and 'of' relates more to the choice that is made.
I approve of your choice in wine
I approve of your choice in Ontario wines.
