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?

    I’ve never heard of the concept of being paid twice a week, unless if you get paid daily but only worked twice that week. Is that really a thing in payroll, because I’ve only heard of biweekly pay to mean once every two weeks.

    Semiweekly isn’t a term I’ve ever heard, but I’ve never worked at a bank.
