Usage notes

  • Use particolarmente in neutral or formal contexts; especially is often translated by soprattutto in everyday speech.
  • It usually modifies adjectives, adverbs, or whole clauses: particolarmente interessante, particolarmente bene, non mi piace particolarmente.
  • With negation, non particolarmente means “not especially,” a common softening phrase rather than a strong refusal.
