bi-weekly
Every two weeks
Bi-weekly means every two weeks or twice a week—the word is genuinely ambiguous.
Context usually clarifies: a bi-weekly paycheck comes every two weeks, while a bi-weekly meeting might be either.
When precision matters, use every two weeks or twice weekly instead.
The same ambiguity affects bi-monthly.
