MONTHLY ONCE/ONCE IN A MONTH
Is there any difference between 'monthly once' and 'once in a month'? Which one is better?

Hi, Neither sounds natural to me. I'd just say 'once a month'. I call my friend once a month.

Hi,
I'm reluctant to say things like this are grammatically incorrect, because sometimes there can be unusual contexts they fit into. But I'd say that almost always it is incorrect grammar. How's that?
