<< review queue entry 51636 - submitted by 'miles' >> The definition "to refer in particular to" is traditional translation, e.g. in zdic or Xinhua dict. But the first 50 examples of usage in Juku http://jukuu.com/show-%E7%89%B9%E6%8C%87-1.html are unambiguously the adverb "especially". I found 特指疑问句, meaning question with a specific interrogative pronoun 谁，什么，哪里. Editor: I think the meaning and use of 特指 is quite well understood from "to refer in particular to". *Especially*, the first 50 examples on J are "especially" (adverbial) only in the English; without the context of a definition-like sentence, "especially" would be incomprehensible. |
