Just say what you mean:

“every 2 weeks,” or

“twice a week.”

Pick the one you mean.

Because unfortunately “biweekly” can mean either of those things, which kinda makes the word useless.

    People in my area of the English speaking world have the horrible habit of saying things like “let’s meet at the bar back of 8” or “I’ll call you back of 6”. I have never got a satisfactory answer if this is “just before ópm” or “just past 6pm”, or even “near the end of 6, so almost 7pm” Every person seems to interpret it differently, it’s wild. And profoundly unhelpful.
