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?

Bi means 2. Bi weekly means 2 weeks.
Semi means half. Semi weekly means every half week or twice per week.
Semi weekly sounds like it means every two weeks
Semi-weekly happens once every semi-week. Much like a semi-circle is half a circle, a semi-week is half a week. Once every half-week is twice weekly.
A bi-week is 2 weeks. Once every two weeks.
This is the first time I hear about semi weekly
