A quick definition of specific legatee:

A specific legatee is someone who is named in a will to receive a certain piece of property or item after the owner has passed away. This can include things like jewelry, artwork, or other personal possessions. It is different from a general legatee, who receives a specified amount of money from the estate, or a residuary legatee, who receives whatever is left over after all other bequests have been fulfilled.

A more thorough explanation:

A specific legatee is a person who is named in a will to receive a specific item or property. This person is also known as a legatee or a beneficiary.

If a person's will states that their car should be given to their niece, then the niece is a specific legatee.
If a person's will states that their antique collection should be given to a museum, then the museum is a specific legatee.

These examples illustrate how a specific legatee is someone who is designated to receive a specific item or property from a deceased person's estate.

One manager came in sick wearing a mask, got roasted and stopped wearing it that day. The entire office has been cycling sickness for two weeks now. It may not be super effective but it may help in slowing the spread during meetings when we have to be so close
