weekly
UK: ˈwiːkli | US: ˈwiːkli
adj. happening or appearing every week
adv. once a week; every week
n. a publication issued once a week
The word "weekly" combines "week," derived from Old English wice (related to Proto-Germanic wikōn, meaning "a turning" or "succession"), with the suffix "-ly," from Old English -līc (meaning "having the qualities of"). Originally, "week" referred to a cycle or change, later fixed to seven days. The suffix "-ly" transforms the noun into an adjective or adverb, indicating regularity. Thus, "weekly" literally means "pertaining to a week" or "occurring every week."
