Ambiguously used words like "biweekly". Does it mean twice per week? Every other week? Business meeting calendar scheduling terminology is especially bad with this.
Odd phrases like you can chop the tree down. Then but then you proceed to chop that same tree up.
Parking in a driveway and driving in a parkway is also a good one.
A driveway is where you drive to get the residence, vs the walkway. Parkways are landscaped with park-like greenery .
After your alarm goes off... You turn it off.
Norwegian is more accurate. "Biweekly" means "annenhver uke" (every other week)
It does here too. It's not an unclear thing, just not used all the time so people don't remember.
Biweekly is every other week, fortnightly.
Semiweekly is twice a week.
