This is just a fluff post, not meant to be taken seriously.
I say 2010 as ‘Two-Thousand Ten.’ No ‘and.’ It’s a minor pet peeve when someone says ‘Twenty Ten.’ It just doesn’t sound right. After all, no one said ‘Twenty Oh-Nine’ for the year 2009, did they? No. So why use that format for 2010? Also, was 1010 ‘Ten Ten?’ No, it was ‘One-Thousand Ten.’
This is strictly a ‘thousand’ thing. 1999 was ‘Nineteen Ninety-Nine.’ 2009 was ‘Two-Thousand Nine.’ 2109 will probably be ‘Twenty-One Oh-Nine’ rather than ‘Twenty-One Nine.’
So now you know how to say the year correctly.
