This is interesting. I'm a JC Comp Honor's student, so this is right up
my alley. And I have a copy of the AH Dictionary and an old copy of the
MLA handy, so here goes:
biˇanˇnuˇal (b-ny-l)
"bi-annually" [P] adj.
1. Happening twice each year; semiannual.
2. Occurring every two years; biennial.
This source cited from MLA:
"bi-annually." The American HeritageŽ Dictionary of the English
Language, Fourth Edition. Houghton Mifflin Company, 2004. 03 Nov. 2006.
<Dictionary.com http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/bi-annually>
So, it appears that the term "semiannual" refers to an occurance 2X/yr.
Biennial refers to an event that happens every 2 years. And finally,
the term "bi-annual" can refer to either term.
"bi-annually" refers to an event that occurs twice a year, to wit:
biannually adv : twice a year; "we hold our big sale biannually"
(cited from same source)
So, technically, when I say that change the coolant bi-annually, it
refers to a change that occurs two times per year.
Class dismissed. And yes, I take good care of my horse. I'll probably
keep it forever, so don't get any ideas!
