Almost forgot before going to bed but I feel bi-weekly is a good rhythm for this.

    I mean every other week. I wasn’t aware of the other interpretation, but I think in combination with “The Sunday thread” it’s unambiguous?

    I have never heard fortnightly, but then I’m not a native speaker. Is that commonly used?

      I have always heard bi-weekly be every other week, and semi-weekly be twice a week

      Perhaps, though I guess it could also be that there is “The Sunday thread” and “The Wednesday thread”.

      As for whether fortnightly is common or not, I think it is, but the other commenter suggests that only the Brits use the term. Fairly certain I’ve heard that from an Aussie friend though, could be that US Americans don’t use the term.

      Perhaps semimonthly is the most unambiguous term? That’s what Mariam-Webster seems to suggest.

        Semi monthly sounds like “monthly, or not” to me. Not sure about the alternatives I’ve seen so far

          True, didn’t think it that way. I don’t know what would be best, English is such a wierd language.
