My wife is good at cooking, especially traditional dishes. My teacher Andrew teaches English very well but specially grammar .😀😀🍓🌹❤️🎶🤔🤔

[@pernaboys]

It should be "Especially" here. Andrew teaches English specially tailored to my liking, especially the grammar. Try to use "Specially" for Adjectives and "Especially" as an adverbial clause.

Could you explain me why dedicate is verb and dedicated is adjective ?

[@mapleleafesl6162]

He has dedicated his life to public service. He is a dedicated professional. In the second sentence, 'dedicated' is an adjective modifying the noun 'professional.'
