1
for a special or particular purpose
Done for a special reason, person, or use, not in the normal or general way.
用法模式:
specially [past participle]
常见错误:
Learners often confuse "specially" and "especially". In this sense, "specially" means "for a special purpose" (e.g. "a chair specially designed for children"). Many style guides prefer "especially" for the meaning "particularly" (e.g. "I especially like jazz"), though in casual speech both are sometimes mixed. Another common error is using the adjective form *special* instead of the adverb: say "specially made", not "special made".

用法模式:
not (specially) [adjective]
常见错误:
Learners often use "specially" in this meaning where many native speakers would prefer "especially" or "particularly", e.g. "I specially like this song" instead of the more natural "I especially like this song". In modern English, this 'particularly' meaning of "specially" is more common in British English and often appears in negative sentences ("not specially happy").
