Lol, this is why I started using fortnightly, to me biweekly means every two weeks, but nobody else I work with agrees
As opposed to semi-weekly?
If anyone suggested that I have forgotten! That's a good idea
I just avoid the word entirely at work. 'Twice a week' and 'twice a month' take the same amount of time to say. Even 'every two weeks' is barely longer.
Yeah unfortunately English painted itself into a corner on this front, and unavoidable ambiguity is a dealbreaker for scheduling, so… RIP biweekly.
You just made me think of Fortnitely, so thanks for that I guess. Somehow I think it will always mean 'about 8 years ago' lol
I agree biweekly is every-other, but biannual means the same as semiannual to me, and I don't know where that leaves me... There's also biennial for every-other though.
In any case, I propose biweekly and byweekly cause you pass one by. Not any better spoken, but still.
Where do you work? I think biweekly has taken to mean 2 weeks, I expect the exception is UK.
