Bimonthly means every two weeks. One can tell by the word monthly which is included in the word bimonthly, giving this clear indication of what is intended.
Bi-monthly has an ambiguity to it, it can mean 'twice a month' or 'every two months'. Where as semi-monthly means only 'twice a month'.
It all depends on how many days are in each month. Semi-monthly should mean half-month if the prefix hasn't been skewed. Therefore, say febuary non leap year has 28 days, the semimonthly check would be every 14 days or 2 weeks. Say january, it would be 2 and 2/15 weeks.
I guess you mean 9 months as a fraction of a year. 1 year = 12 months ⇒ 9 months = 9/12 of a year = 3/4 = 0.75

A bimonthly magazine is published every two months.
bimonthly can be used to mean this. Since bimonthly can also refer to "twice a month",it needs to be used with caution.
The prefix bi- usually means 'every two', so bimonthly means 'every two months'. Semi- means 'half' or 'halfway', so semimonthly means 'every two weeks'. However, bimonthly can also mean 'twice a month' - but it is rarely used that way. It is best to remember that bi- is "every two" and semi- is "halfway."

The sameambiguity affects biweekly and biyearly.In the future, especially where your money is concerned, if you want to be absolutelyclear, it's best to use a phrase such as 'twice a week' or 'every two years'.From your question, I'll take it to mean 'every two months', so that your interest iscompounded 6 times a year, and 30 times in 5 years.Future value = $1,000 x (1 + 0.04/6)30 = $1,220.59
No! bi-monthly means every two months, like bi-weekly means every two weeks. semi-monthly means twice a month. Think of mortgage payments or payroll, bi-weekly payroll means one receives payroll every second week (i.e. every second Friday). Semi-monthly payroll means twice a month (typically the 1st and 15th of the month).
