20 ten ...sounds a lot better and simpler ,but we will call it 2thhhhhhhousssssand and ten in this country, just to be awkward ;)
Report aziraphale • January 1, 2010 1:46 PM GMT
but "twenty oh nine" is shorter than "two thousand and nine" and yet nobody called it that....

Two thousand and ten will be used by normal people. Twenty ten will be adopted by those that say 24/7 and use facebook and twitter.

where has this idea come from that 'we always say two thousand and.... ' ????

The Titanic sank in Nineteen Eleven , not Nineteen Hundred And Eleven

The Battle of Waterloo was in Eighteen Fifteen.........

Really using the 'two thousand and' seems to be the 'facebook' way

majority usage of "two thousand (and) X" is a result of influences from the Y2K hype, as well as the way "2001" was pronounced in the influential 1968 film, 2001: A Space Odyssey.[5]
