Period
Frequency can be applied to any kind of motion that is repetitive. It answers the question; "how frequent does the cycle repeat itself?" Then it is expressed by counting how often the motion repeats in a certain amount of time and dividing that count by the time. For example if 12 complete waves (or cycles) pass a point in 6 seconds then the frequency is 12/6 = 2 cycles/sec. The unit of 1 cycle/sec is called a Hertz so the frequency would also be expressed as 2 Hertz or 2 Hz.

We clearly heard you say "one complete cycle every 2 seconds". That means that the period is 2 seconds. No calculation or arithmetic of any kind is needed.

Period
The time required for an object to complete one full cycle of motion is known as the period. It is measured in seconds and is determined by the frequency of the motion, which is the number of cycles completed in one second. The period can be calculated as the reciprocal of the frequency.
The amount of time for one particle of the medium to make one complete vibration cycle is known as the period of the wave. It is the time it takes for a wave to repeat its motion.
A cycle is a complete motion or action that repeats over and over.
Period. It is the time it takes for a periodic wave or motion to complete one full cycle, returning to its original position or state.
The time required for one complete cycle of a motion that returns to its starting point is called the period of the motion. It is typically denoted by the symbol T and is measured in seconds. The period is the reciprocal of the frequency of the motion.
A circle is a shape that is round and continuous, while a cycle refers to a series of events that repeat in a particular order. Circles are geometric figures, while cycles are patterns of events or behaviors.

The term you are looking for is "period" in the context of wave motion. It represents the time taken for the wave to complete one full cycle of its motion before it starts repeating itself.
In a two-stroke engine, two strokes is one cycle. In a four stroke engine, four strokes is one complete cycle. A stroke is a part of a cycle. Remember that the "up" motion and the "down" motion each count as one stroke.
A single cycle is the building block of harmonic motion, representing one complete oscillation from start to finish. It typically includes a starting point, a peak, a midpoint, and an endpoint that marks a full cycle of the motion.
One complete rotation of the Earth is 360 degrees.
