现在specially与especially可以通用吗?

传统语法和工具书(如钱歌川的《英文疑难详解》)都严格区分specially和especially这两个副词,而现在的工具书似乎将他们划等号,如:

specially adverb (also especially)
extremely or particularly
This is a specially good wine.
\"Is there anything you want to do this evening?\" \"Not specially.\"
The children really liked the museum, specially the dinosaurs.

especially adverb (also specially)
very much; particularly; for a particular reason
She's not especially interested in sport.
I chose this especially for your new house.
They invited her to speak especially because of her experience in inner cities.
