prefixes - Is there a prefix that indicates that an event recurs four times a year?


More importantly, is there a resource or table somewhere that I can use in the future to construct prefixes for other intervals shorter than a year?




Not really, because commonly used ones are often exceptions to rules. However, you now have a good set:



  • Annually (and the multiplicators)

  • Bianually

  • Quarterly

  • Monthly (there should be a word for every two months)

  • Fortnightly

  • Weekly

...



Now you only have problems if you need to define every 6 weeks or suchlike.
