There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!
Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.
- ex. How do I change oil
- ex. How to tie shoes
- ex. Can you cry underwater?
Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca still apply!
Thanks for reading all of this, even if you didn't read all of this, and your eye started somewhere else, have a watermelon slice ๐.

The word for "biweekly" you are looking for is "semi-weekly".
If someone told me a thing happened semi-weekly, I would interpret that as almost-but-not-quite weekly, as in, most weeks this thing occurs- but not every week.
If someone asked you to draw a semicircle, would you draw almost a circle but not quite a whole circle? Or, would you draw half of a circle because semi means half?
But a semi truck isn't half of a truck.
And semi finals are almost the end.
