英文原文：

Tom
Hi everybody! I’m Tom from BBC Learning English. People often confuse the words?specially?and?especially. Today, I'm going to tell you the difference.

Both of these words are adverbs.

Especially?means 'in particular' or 'most of all'. For example:?I like food, but I especially like sandwiches.?This means that I particularly like sandwiches. They're my favourite kind of food.

Specially, however, has a different meaning.?Specially?means 'for a particular purpose' or 'in a particular way'. So:?This sandwich was specially made. Dan made a special sandwich just for me.

Thank you, Dan!

湯姆 大家好！我是英國廣播公司（BBC）學習英語節(jié)目的湯姆。人們經?；煜?"specially" 和 "especially" 這兩個詞。今天我來告訴你們它們之間的區(qū)別。

這兩個詞都是副詞。

"Especially" 的意思是 "特別" 或 "尤其是"。例如：我喜歡食物，但我特別喜歡三明治。這意味著我特別喜歡三明治，它們是我最喜歡的食物。

然而，"Specially" 的意思不同。它的意思是 "為特定目的" 或 "用特定方式"。例如：這個三明治是特別制作的。丹為我特別做了一個三明治。

謝謝你，丹！
