Meaning and Usage
"特意" means "specially" or "on purpose," indicating that an action is done intentionally and with special effort. It often implies that the person went out of their way to do something.
Common Contexts
It is frequently used when someone does something deliberately for another person or a particular purpose, such as preparing a gift, making an effort to arrive early, or emphasizing a point.
Collocations and Patterns
- 特意为 (tèyì wèi): specially for someone or something
- 特意去 (tèyì qù): specially go to do something
- 特意强调 (tèyì qiángdiào): specially emphasize
These collocations highlight intentionality and effort.
Usage Notes
"特意" is more formal and explicit than simply "故意" (deliberately) and usually carries a positive or neutral connotation, emphasizing care or consideration rather than wrongdoing. Avoid confusing it with "特别" which means "especially" but does not necessarily imply intention.
