The same as everywhere else ( well almost, ask kenneth ;)).
It's how often something happens.
In wave it's how many time does it repeat per second, but it could be how many blue cars go by your house every 1 hour.

Frequency is the measurement of the number of occurrences of a repeated event per unit of time. For example Alternating Current (AC) repeats at a frequency, f, of 60 cycles per second (cps). One period, p, is 1/f =1/60 second.
Radio waves are broadcast at various frequencies varying from low frequencies (LF) to VHF to UHF to SHF, and higher. The British have VHI which is Very High Indeed. (Just joking).

frequency is the inverse of time (i.e. - how often something happens) f = instances/time
