In general, many adverbs, called 부사 in Korean, are created by attaching 게 to to the end of an adjective stem (A + 게). However, sometimes there is a more natural form, especially adverbs ending with the syllable 히 or (으)로. Also since Korean and English are quite different languages, some of the adverbs translated literally into English can sound awkward, for example '맛있게 먹다' means eat deliciously.

Common Adverbs Formed with Adjective + 게

Also see: A + 게

Common Adverbs Ending with 히

Adjectives Ending with 히
Adverb Meaning Derived from Meaning
대단히 greatly, highly, extremely 대단하다 to be great, incredible
분명히 <分明―> definitely, clearly, certainly 분명하다 to be clear
솔직히 <率直―> honestly, frankly 솔직하다 to be frank, honest, open
순순히 <順順--> passively, obediently 순순하다 to be passive, obedient

완전히 <完全-> completely, fully, perfectly 완전하다 to be complete, full, perfect
우연히 <偶然-> on accident, by chance 우연하다 to be accidental, coincidental
자세히 <仔細-> in detail 자세하다 to be detailed
천천히 slowly N/A
특히 <特-> especially, particularly 특별하다 <特別--> to be special
확실히 <確實-> certainly, for sure, for certain, definitely 확실하다 to be certain, sure

Korean seldom use "천천한" so don't regard it as mechanical thing.

Some words originated from Chinese Character, like English word with Latin or Greek dervation. That's why you may have some difficulty in finding relation between "특히" & "특별한"

There's some applications of "특". "특식" - special food "특실" - special room "특차" - specially selected and uncountable applications because Chinese charcter has its own meaning and various combinations are possible.

These are often formed with nouns, sometimes in conjunction with 적 attached to the noun as well.
