yes, the words have the same meaning. to select is to highlight and
vise versa

synonymous? I wondered because vo uses both so I assumed they were

I have always assumed that they were synonyms and it hasn't seemed
to have any effect. It's confusing though I think. I think the term
highlight refers to the fact that the item looks different visually
when it is selected. But conceptually what you're doing is
selecting the
item. I think they should pick one or the other and use it
consistently
or put a note somewhere that says that these words mean the same thing
so we don't get it Cmuddled.
