[English] The use of "Specially"
Hi. I' m thinking about the difference between "Especially" and "Specially". As far as I understand, "Specially" is normally used with a purpose, so it is normally with some action verbs like "make", "prepare", "give", something like that.
But then, is "Specially" not natural to be used with some adjectives that cannot have any purpose? For example,
1) She is specially beautiful
2) It is raining specially a lot
And how about the following?
3) I specially like him
4) I specially hate him
I understand that they are like "in a special way" unlike using "especially" instead. My question is not whether it is correct or not, but whether it is "common" or not.
Thank you!

"Thank you" in Japanese
感謝かんしゃする; 感謝かんしゃいたす; 感謝かんしゃ申もうしあげる
Is this Japanese sentence?
Is this common to use in Japanese?
If yes, how is that different from "ありがとうございます"?

"SHOULD" as an assumption
Hi. I heard that when "should" is used for an assumption instead of "if", the meaning is the same but the possibility is smaller. Do you guys agree on that?
For example, if I say "Should you have any question, please feel free to ask", does it imply that you know something very well enought not to ask any question, but if you, by any chance, have some, please feel free to ask? To say that in a more polite and respectful way?

What is the structure of the above sentence and what was the original simple structure like?
Does it mean "Like? or Because? this Scottish one has been successful, this Scottish one is booked up for the next two years as well?"
What does "IT" refer to?
Thank you in advance :)

Pronounciation of "th"
When you pronounce "th" for example "this", "that", "think", etc., you put your tongue between your upper teeth and lower teeth and pull it back.
And when you say them quickly and/or consecutively with others, you always start it by putting your tongue there? Or, in that case, you say it in the way you pronounce like "D", putting your tongue behind your upper teeth?
