Also means
to make up one's mind
Usage Note
Décider is a regular -er verb, but it takes de before an infinitive: je décide de partir (I decide to leave). The reflexive form se décider adds a sense of finally committing after hesitation, as in 's/he finally made up her mind'.
Examples
"Il doit décider rapidement."
Natural Translation
He must decide quickly.
