Why does bi-weekly mean "every two weeks?" This has always bothered me because intuitively it should mean "twice a week."
Why does bi-weekly mean "every two weeks?" This has always bothered me because intuitively it should mean "twice a week."
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?

weekly is once a week. bi-weekly is weekly times 2
wait a minute, by that rationale, maybe bi-weekly means that it's sexually attracted to two different types of weeks
If you bisect something, you don't double it.
So bisexual means half-sexual.
In your case, it's a misspelling. Should be buysexual.
