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?

They don’t have “scores” either at least anymore.
Don’t they have scores when lots of people die? The news here only ever uses scores when it’s referring to loss of life. like if a building collapsed. they’d say ‘scores of people were killed today etc…’
“Scores” just means “a lot”. Nobody here uses “score” (singular) to mean 20.
wtf does 20 have to do with anything?
That’s how much a score is.
so?
So I was relying to a comment about scores. Do you not understand how conversation works?
not this one no
We do, we’re typically familiar with the concept it’s just not something we say. Kinda like how we know what autumn is but we just call it fall.
It’s kinda weird but I’m sure you know the feeling with some words you know of but it’s kinda weird for people to use in a sentence.
What’s the adjective in American for “having to do with the season fall?”
Autumnal. It’s not used much.
