Question

specifically adv.特别地；明确地；具体地 (1) 已经特别叮嘱过你不要吃鱼。(2) 他对毒蛇特别感兴趣。(3) 老板明确地要找你。(4) 请您具体讲一讲关于付款方式的建议好吗? The adverb specifically comes from the Latin specificus, and shares a root with special and species. If you specifically choose something, you have made a special choice about it. If you single something out specifically, it's particularly significant. A documentary about this history of childhood might have been a real eye-opener, specifically the part about how kids used to go to work at 12 or younger.
