Oceans apart

Just a quick one today. Can anyone spot the difference between the two words below?

specific PhoneticPhoneticPhoneticPhoneticPhoneticPhoneticPhoneticPhoneticPhoneticPhoneticPhoneticPhonetic adjective: relating to one thing and not others; particular

pacific PhoneticPhoneticPhoneticPhoneticPhoneticPhoneticPhoneticPhoneticPhoneticPhoneticPhonetic adjective: peaceful or helping to cause peace

If you can see where the two differ, please try to extend this differentiation, and use them correctly when talking loudly into your wireless phones, or whatever they’re called.
