..... Well, once again, in my entire life I've never seen or heard any native-English speaker use the word 'especial'. Your dictionary link specified 'British', but I've never even heard a Brit or Canadian or Australian use 'especial'.

And it's also rather pointless to put an e on the beginning of that word ... why over-complicate it .... but I suppose that's just my opinion ...
