How will you say 2010?

I will be saying two thousand ten. I never understood why people would say oh 9. Oh is a letter, in a year it is a zero, so for the previous year is should have been 2 thousand 9. Also, in the math world if you said 2 thousand and 10, someone might think you meant 2000.10
 

I say two thousand ten.

I never wanted to "party like it's one thousand, nine hundred, ninety-nine" so I'm thinking it's twenty ten for me.:)

I was thinking about this last night. No one ever said one thousand nine hundred and the year. However, I think once it goes into the next century, the way the year is said will become standardized with "twenty one" and the year to follow.

When I refer to the previous century and the first decade of that, I say nineteen OH nine. I never said that in this decade though.

Weird.
 
I don't care if it's two thousand ten or twenty ten. Either one is fine, and like a previous poster said, I'll probably use them both.

I have to beg people not to use AND in the number!! As taylor3297 brilliantly pointed out, two thousand AND ten is 2,000.10. My 3rd graders know better!

2010. There is no and.
 
Emer95 I was just about to post the same thing! It drives me bonkers when people say two thousand and ten. There is no and.

:confused3 In the scheme of things not sure I would worry too much about it.
More things bug me in life
 
It's weird...when I read it I say twenty-ten in my head. But I've been saying two thousand ten outloud.
 
I don't spend any time worrying about it but when I hear it or see it with the and it grates on my nerves. Did you say nineteen and eighty?
 
Oh, is the issue the "and"? Because, no. Well, of course, Columbus did 'discover' American in fourteen hundred and ninety two ;)

Thanks for the compliment. I used to be a middle grades math teacher, so it really bugs me when people us an and where it is not appropriate.

Oh and Columbus America in 1492 no AND!
