  Dear Mr Joe
  I always had a confusion when I wanted to use “specially” or “especially” and had to use the dictionary and try to adapt this word, but now I’m sure when use each one of them.

  All your notes are very important and practical.

  Thanks a lot for your help. I have learnt so much

  Sincerily

  They sound like they have the same meaning (for example when we translate into our Vietnamese language, both have the same meaning words), but we can image them in each case when we talk about it, so we’ll won’t get mistake.
