Back to Word Wars today!! Did you miss it?? 😆
Today's words are especially and specially. What's the difference?
The two words are very close in meaning and often get used in the same way, but they do, however, have a difference.
especially (adv) = particularly / exceptionally
specially (adv) = for a particular / specific purpose
Let's look at some examples to see the difference in practice.
Especially
1. I especially like the way you've decorated your office.
2. I bought this cake especially for you.
3. All talks were very inspiring, especially the last one.
Specially
1. We had a specially made cover fitted over our antique chair, so that it wouldn't get worn out.
2. They were waiting for a specially designed course to arrive before they started classes.
3. Her specially tinted glasses helped her see better when it was bright.
😃 Do you see the difference? Both adverbs refer to special things, but specially refers to things done for a special purpose.
Word Wars will be back soon!!
Have a great weekend! 😊😊🌞🌞
