What is fortnight meaning?

Fortnight means a period of two weeks. The word "fortnight" is derived from the Old English word "feowertyne niht," which means "fourteen nights." In British English, it is commonly used as a way of expressing a date or duration of time, for example, "I'll see you in a fortnight" or "I'm going on vacation for a fortnight." In other parts of the English-speaking world, the term may not be as commonly used, with "two weeks" being more prevalent.
