### In the lessons

In maths problems "weekly" tells you the amount for one week, which you multiply by the number of weeks or divide by 7 for one day. In everyday life: weekly shop, weekly spelling test, weekly bin collection. Phrases: weekly test, weekly shop, twice weekly, paid weekly.

### Note

Week + ly. Similar: daily, monthly, yearly. Maths: weekly amount × 52 is about the yearly amount; weekly ÷ 7 is the daily amount. Trap: "biweekly" can mean twice a week or every two weeks, so it is unclear.
