bi-annual v biennial
Don't say that:
Bi-annual when you mean every other year
Biennial when you mean twice a year.
Do say this:
Bi-annual when you mean twice a year
Biennial when you mean every other year.
Why?:
Let's illustrate this with regard to plants.
A bi-annual flowers twice each year.
A biennial flowers once this year, not next year then once the year after and so on.
The prefix "bi" means two or, in this case, twice.
