The full moon comes once a month so you see full moon twelve times a year!
The moon takes one month to complete a revolution around the earth. A full moon occurs when the moon is on the opposite side of the earth from the sun (opposition). The full moon can only happen at this part of the lunar orbit, and it takes one month to complete the orbit; thus, full moon happens once a month.
You see the shadow of Earth cast upon the moon. The Sun's light creates the shadow and illuminates the quarter moon you see.
Both the 1st Quarter moon and the 3rd (last) Quarter moon can be referred to as the "half moon" since we see half of the sunlit side of the moon.

Yes sometimes there are 2 full moons during one month. These do not happen very often and the second full moon is called a 'blue moon', hence the expression, "once in a blue moon".
The complete cycle of the moon we see on earth in phases: New moon, First quarter, full moon, third quarter. & back to new moon. This cycle is 29.5 days. Some might consider this a "moon month" {moon Moonth}, However each of the earth months have the same number of days any where in the solar System nay Universe.
Exactly 50% of the moon is illuminated by the sun at every instant of time (except during a lunar eclipse).From our vantage point on earth, the amount of the illuminated half that we can see at any time changesduring the month."First Quarter" means the first quarter of the moon's entire cycle of phases ... about 7.4 days after the"New Moon". At that time, we see half of the illuminated part of the moon ... you'd call it a "half moon".

The moon rotates on its axis and since the death also does,when the sun's light hits part of it we see only parts of the moon and sometimes we see the out line of the rest of the m moon.
At least once a month. Like yesterday Sunday, April, 17th.
