From 'fourteen nights' - two weeks


Another reason to know what fortnight means is that it enables you to use the word "fortnightly" instead of "bi-weekly." With the latter I never know if the speaker meant "twice a week" or "every two weeks" without a follow-up question.


will add it soon. Thanks
