OK. From Wikipedia
"A
fortnight is a unit of time equal to 14
days (2
weeks). The word derives from the
Old English term
fēowertyne niht, meaning "
fourteen nights".
[1][2]
Some
wages and salaries are paid on a fortnightly basis;
[3] however, in North America it is far more common to use the term
biweekly"
If I was paid "biweekly" I'd feel ripped off.
