Do Americans differenciate "partly" and "partialy" in their daily conversation?

Answer

The only time I really hear "partly" in daily conversations here in the US is when we are talking about weather. Ex: "Today is going to be partly cloudy"
Otherwise, I always hear partially. Ex: "I'm only partially done with this project."
Hope this helped!
