The children really liked the museum, specially the dinosaurs. specially /ˈspeʃ. ə l.i/ adverb ( also especially ) FOR ONE PURPOSE 2. for a particular purpose I came here specially to see you. She has a wheelchair that was specially made for her. especially /ɪˈspeʃ. ə l.i/ adverb ( also specially ) very much; particularly; for a particular reason She �s not especially interested in sport. I chose this especially for your new house. They invited her to speak especially because of her experience in inner cities.
