日にっ刊かんN1
日刊 means 'published daily', while 週刊 means 'published weekly'; they contrast in publication frequency.
ウィークリー
週刊 specifically describes publications issued once a week (as in 週刊誌), whereas ウィークリー is used more broadly for any weekly item or plan.

日にっ刊かんN1
週刊 means published once a week, while 日刊 means published every day, so the two are easy to mix up because both are 〜刊 frequency terms.
月げっ刊かんN1
週刊 refers to a weekly publication, whereas 月刊 refers to a monthly one, and learners often confuse the two 〜刊 terms.
年ねん刊かん
週刊 refers to a weekly publication, whereas 年刊 refers to a yearly one, and learners often mix them up since both end in 刊 with just the frequency kanji differing.

Compound of 週 (しゅう, 'week') and 刊 (かん, 'publication').

週刊 means a weekly publication, while 季刊 means a much less frequent quarterly one, so learners can mix up which term matches which schedule.
