There's also semi monthly, which is two times a month, as opposed to every two weeks, which is what biweekly is
Semi monthly results in 24 events per year while biweekly events happen 26 times

if we're taking financial payment periods, i believe that some years turn into 27 periods 😄
Approximately 26 times a year.
