actually, it should be 'biweekly', not semiweekly...semiweekly would be half a week. Biweekly means two weeks.

It's actually bimonthly.  Adding "bi" to something means it happens twice every _____.  I think (not sure) semiweekly is also correct.


blast....you are correct.  just looked it up.  Semi and bi both mean twice every _____.   So Bimonthly would be the correct phrase if you want to say every two weeks.

You two haven't heard of a fortnight then

Fortnightly fits just fine.

Well, we haven't had one of these in two and a half months, so that's gone out the window.

Biannual, perhaps?
