Is there a prefix that indicates that an event recurs four times a year?
Solution 1:
This is not exactly a prefix but the word does indeed refer to an event that occurs four times a year. And the word is "Quarterly".
Solution 2:
More importantly, is there a resource or table somewhere that I can use in the future to construct prefixes for other intervals shorter than a year?
Not really, because commonly used ones are often exceptions to rules. However, you now have a good set:
- Annually (and the multiplicators)
- Bianually
- Quarterly
- Monthly (there should be a word for every two months)
- Fortnightly
- Weekly
...
Now you only have problems if you need to define every 6 weeks or suchlike.
Solution 3:
If
quarterly
doesn't suffice,
tri-monthly
is probably closest in spirit to "semi-annually" (although I would prefer "biannual" to this anyway)
You should be able to construct such a table reasonably easily.
weekly every week
bi-weekly every two weeks
tri-weekly every three weeks
monthly every month
bi-monthly every two months
tri-monthly every three months
biannual every six months
etc.
