Fortnights

A fortnight is a unit of time equal to exactly 14 days (1,209,600 seconds), or two weeks. The word is a contraction of "fourteen nights" from Old English. It is still widely used in British English, particularly in employment law (wages paid fortnightly), rental agreements, and magazine publication schedules. The fortnight has no equivalent single word in most other languages, making it a distinctly British measurement unit.

Years

The year is based on Earth's orbital period around the Sun. The Julian year used in astronomy is exactly 365.25 days (31,557,600 seconds). The Gregorian calendar approximates the tropical year as 365.2425 days through its leap year rule, achieving accuracy to within 26 seconds per year. In geology, time spans are expressed in millions of years (Ma) or billions of years (Ga).
