However it comes out of my mouth at the time. |
For me, two thousand and ten.
|
Twenty-ten is probably the most easiest way to say.
|
two thousand and ten, to break it up to-thou-sand-and-ten yup like that ^_^
|
Twenty-ten.
I like the sound of it. |
I'll say both. Year after year of hearing different ways of saying years' names have made me lose consistency.
|
I'll stick with two thousand and ten. I hate when people say twenty-ten. >:<
|
Two thousand and ten is more familiar to me.
|
I was thinking of using two thousand ten, but now I'll probably use twenty ten instead, since it's easier for me to say and because it's like how we pronounced the years before 2000.
But I'll probably use whichever comes to mind first since I was so used to pronouncing it like the former. |
I Say "2000 & Ten" I'm Just Used To It....^_^
|
I personally prefer twenty-ten.
|
Twenty Ten...
But 2KX sounds awesomer so yeah 2KX from now on :3 |
Two Thousand and Ten, I dont like shortening years at all.
|
Probably twenty-ten. I mean, I don't even like how it sounds or anything, but since I talk more about the years before 2000, the consistency will be nice.
|
Maybe o'ten
two thousand and ten. not twenty ten because I find twenty tounge twisting. @[email protected] |
I'll prolly do both Two-thousand and Ten and Twenty-Ten. Just whatever comes out of my mouth at the time.

I would say "twenty-ten", because its easier and faster to say than "two-thousand and ten". |
I think I'll go with "two thousand ten."
For some reason it sounds better to me. |
It will be a mix, but "two thousand and ten" will be said more often :3
|
If you want to pronounce it "two thousand and ten," then be prepared to pronounce 2011 as "two thousand and eleven." Ugh.
Twenty Ten. It sounds more futuristic imo. |
Two thousand ten. Screw the "and". Same way I said 2009.
|
I always say Two-Thousand Ten. It's simple.
|
I'm stuck in the "oh-one, oh-two, etc" habit. I've caught myself saying "oh-ten" already. I suppose that'll stick XD;
|
I think "twenty ten" rolls off the tongue much easier than "oh ten" or "two thousand ten".
|
I wish this were an actual poll because this has been bothering me so much for the last month. I constantly catch myself having an internal monologue that goes something like "Oh god, what am I going to call 2010? We've been saying two thousand and ____ for years, so should we continue like that? That'll get annoying in two thousand ninety nine. But what if twenty ten doesn't catch on?? It sounds kinda silly but it is much less of a mouthful."
And it honestly continues for a while. :( IT'S BUGGING ME. I've been saying both. Everyone I've polled about this (which is more people than I'd like to admit) says they're switching back and forth until society sticks with one. I think that's the best idea. Anyone know what they did in the early 1900s? Have we always said like... eighteen sixty-eight? Should we change that pattern because twenty-oh-nine sounds weird? Will that even sound weird years from now?? THIS KEEPS ME UP AT NIGHT. |
