दो n और अंत में -ial ('bienial' गलत है)।
?Which word?
biennial or biannual?
Biennial means once every two years: 'biennial Rajya Sabha elections'. Biannual means twice a year: 'a biannual magazine'. Bi- is ambiguous in bimonthly and biweekly, so for clarity say 'every two months' or 'twice a month'. Half-yearly and six-monthly are safe alternatives to biannual.
Biennial का अर्थ 'हर दो साल में एक बार' है: 'biennial Rajya Sabha elections'। Biannual का अर्थ 'साल में दो बार' है: 'a biannual magazine'। Bimonthly और biweekly में bi- अस्पष्ट है, इसलिए स्पष्टता के लिए 'every two months' या 'twice a month' कहिए। Half-yearly और six-monthly, biannual के सुरक्षित विकल्प हैं।
The biennial/biannual pair is a regular trap.
Biennial और biannual की जोड़ी नियमित trap है।
