Bimonthly

/baɪˈmʌnθli/ adjective

Occurring every two months, or (less commonly) occurring twice within one month; a publication issued bimonthly.

From bi- (two) + monthly. The ambiguity arose because bi- can mean both 'every two' and 'two times,' creating confusion that has persisted since the term's emergence in English.
