2. A group, set, or series of fourteen (quadant) humans or entities: a double septenary or fortnight unit.

Significance:
• It defines the quantity fourteen with systematic regularity and clarity.
• It emphasizes fortnightly cycles, double weeks (septanes), and sonnet structures.
• It identifies bi-weekly pay periods, the line count of a traditional sonnet, and any two-week temporal cycle.
• It avoids irregular and ambiguous pronunciations associated with Germanic numeric forms.
• It simplifies expressions of bi-weekly scheduling, poetic forms, and double septenary units.
• It improves precision in descriptions of temporal cycles, literary structures, and organizational periods.

Quarantinesgiving

It is a combination (portmanteau/neologism) of the words Quarantine and Thanksgiving. Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, this can be viewed as a novel holiday in which Thanksgiving is celebrated during a quarantine typically accompanied by virtual parties and get-together via Zoom or Skype. Social-distancing and a minimal number of guests are urged for such a holiday, but not always abided by during such times like those of COVID-19.
John: Are you excited for Quarantinesgiving on Zoom?

Mary: Not really, this is sad and depressing, I wish we could be in person, but I guess it’s better than nothing.

John: Hang in there, we can enjoy a virtual meal, toast, and good chats amongst our family and friends while keeping safe and not spreading this damn virus.

Mary: Okay, you’re right! I guess I didn’t think of it that way; in that case, Happy Quarantinesgiving!!!
