My mom asked me this today, and my friends were arguing about which one sounded better last night.
So, what will you say? twenty-ten or two-thousand and ten? Or some other obscure way of saying it, which I'm going to suggest now that you don't do.
I've found myself saying twenty-ten. It's one less syllable and rolls of the tongue easier, in my opinion.
Two-o ten.
Or 2K10/2000 10/twenty-ten.
Twenty-ten.
Twenty-Ten, despite how stupid it sounds.
Twenty-Ten.
two zero one zero
Two-thousand-and-ten or two-thousand-ten. I don't care if it's less to say, I didn't say twenty-oh-nine so why start now? :|
Probably twenty-ten but writing it I'm probably going to have think "two oh one oh"
o ten
That's how I plan to do so.
I'll probably just end up saying both twenty-ten and two thousand-ten.
Two thousand ten.
Twenty ten is just stupid.
Says the person who pronounces 2012 as "twenty twelve".
It would make more sense to call it twenty-ten.
A little of two thousand ten and some twenty-ten. Probably more two thousand ten because i'm used to saying it that way for 2008, 2009, etc.
It's weird, but I find myself thinking 'two thousand and ten' when I see '2010', but I find myself saying 'twenty-ten'. I need to make up my gosh darn mind.
twenty-ten followed by two thousand ten
But since you've forced me to think about it I realized that I almost never mention the year out loud unless I'm reading it on something.
