I am confused
Feb. 17th, 2006 01:01 pmCurrent office argument: does bimonthly mean twice a month, or once every two months?
Being a good little librarian, I looked it up at m-w.com, the Ultimate Source for Word Meanings.
Main Entry: bi·month·ly
Function: adjective
1 : occurring every two months
2 : occurring twice a month : SEMIMONTHLY
This effectively renders the word useless, does it not?
