Word origin

特制 (tèzhì, "specially made") joins 特 (tè, "special") with 制 (zhì, "make or produce"), so the word points to special production rather than merely special appearance.

Usage tips

  • On menus and gift packaging, this label highlights how an item was made rather than promising that it was customized for one named buyer, so surrounding details matter.
