What is semi monthly payroll?

I came across the term "semi-monthly payroll" while researching different payroll schedules. Can someone explain what it means exactly?

Semi-monthly Payroll implies that salaries are given out twice monthly, and the employees receive their salaries on daily recurring dates, such as the 15 th and the final day of the month. The outcome of this is that there are 24 payments per annum.

It is not like biweekly payroll that is paid twice a week (26 times in one year). The semi-monthly pay periods might be unfixed, in terms of days.

This leaves it with 24 pay periods a year. Approximately half a month is covered per paycheck although the number of the workdays per pay period can be changed.
