Similar case in point: "bimonthly" means "twice a month." That makes sense.

But the definition for "bi-weekly" does not make sense.

What do you think?

Don't they have scores when lots of people die? The news here only ever uses scores when it's referring to loss of life. like if a building collapsed. they'd say 'scores of people were killed today etc..'

"Scores" just means "a lot". Nobody here uses "score" (singular) to mean 20.

wtf does 20 have to do with anything?

So I was relying to a comment about scores. Do you not understand how conversation works?
