Bi annual ... Does this mean once every two years .... Or twice a year ....

And no ....before any smart arse implies thats how often the wife and I do the dance with no pants ...

While on the subject ... Mrs asked which time is closest to midnight ... 2350 or 0005 ... Mrs seems too think that 0005 is closer ... Which I've argued unless she has flux capacitor to go back in time 2350 is closer too midnight .....

Lots of people use Bi annual to mean one every 2 years but it is grammatically incorrect

biennial is in fact the correct term for once every 2 years.

Bi annual means twice a year.

Hope that helps.

Yes agreed, also your missus is right. Five minutes after midnight is closer than ten minutes to midnight. Though some might say who cares

I agree, sadly the confusion I believe is down to the fact that many people don't pronounce a lot of words properly.

But also 00 05 is only 5 mins past midnight…. Depends on how you look at time
