meaning The prefix "bi-" comes from the Latin "bis" meaning "twice". Substituting for "bi-" we have: bi-weekly = twice-weekly; bi-annually = twice annually. Time for all of the English gurus to get together and settle this once and for all! 12/19/2024 - 9:15 pm | View Link
Is there a word that means "every four weeks"? Regarding quadweekly and quadriweekly, I like quatriweekly or quatri-weekly better. Quadroon and quadrant, for example, use quadr-as one-fourth, while quatrain uses quatr-as four; but the roots of all of them are closely related to words meaning four. 12/19/2024 - 2:05 pm | View Link

Are there any words I can use to disambiguate "biweekly"? It's a great word. Besides the ambiguity of the words "bi-weekly" or "bi-monthly," I think that they are esthetically ugly and artificial words that detract from the English language.

The Jets quarterback acknowledged as much Monday when he expressed a willingness to take a pay cut and to mentor a young quarterback next season but stressed there are still decisions to be made before then.
“I haven’t decided whether or not I want to play moving forward,” Rodgers said on ESPN’s “The Pat McAfee Show.”
“They haven’t decided — or maybe they have, but haven’t told me — what their plans are moving forward.
If you’re dreaming of a steamy Christmas this year, these festive flicks will deck your halls with holiday cheer.

ORLANDO – Depending on the perspective, this either is a cruel twist of fate or destiny providing a second chance.
And, so, five nights after one of the most distressing losses in the Miami Heat’s 37 seasons, Erik Spoelstra’s team finds itself back at Kia Center on Thursday night for a rematch against the Orlando Magic.
As in the shorthanded Orlando Magic who stormed back from a 22-point deficit at the start of the fourth quarter to a 121-114 victory over the Heat on their homecourt Saturday night.
If the Heat goal had been to move on from misery, the schedule had something else in mind.
“I mean, walking in, we’re definitely going to remember that moment of hearing that buzzer go off and we lose the game after being up 20-plus,” said center Bam Adebayo, with the Heat outscored 37-8 in that fourth quarter.

LOS ANGELES — The condiment shelf in my refrigerator is a chaotic place. I am no Marie Kondo, but I could argue that each jar, squeeze bottle and tube sparks real joy.
My bottle of Kewpie shares real estate with a 64-ounce jar of Best Foods.
The future is cloudy for the Jets after a disappointing 2024 season.
After owner Woody Johnson fired both Robert Saleh and Joe Douglas during the season, there’s a lot of uncertainty within the organization.
That also includes Aaron Rodgers and the quarterback position.
Following this season, Rodgers’s contract has no guaranteed money remaining.
