A magazine can be published each day (daily), but more generally once by week (weekly) or once a month (monthly). If it is published every fifteen days it is semi-monthly or Quinzomadaire . It can also be two-monthly (every two months), quarterly (every three months) or semi-annual (twice a year). Beyond these periods, these adjectives are seldom used like names. One will say thus that Paris Match is a weekly magazine, and the History a monthly magazine. In France, the Candle of the sapper is a magazine which leaves all the February 29th, i.e. every four years.
