Nineteen-oh-nine, nineteen-ten, nineteen-eleven, etc.
Unless you want to say twenty-oh-ten, the past doesn't help :p |
I will stick to saying two-thousand and ten. Saying twenty-ten sounds a bit weird. I know the media is saying it that way. And my parents said that is the right way to say it, but I really like saying it with the thousand. But it doesn't bother me if everyone is saying it the correct way.
|
Most definitely twenty ten, it clicks better.
|
Two thousand ten.
I always leave out the 'and' part, for that feels juvenile and unneeded to me for some reason. I hate twenty ten... Sounds like you can't count or speak numbers to me. |
Either two thousand and ten or twenty ten, probably both of them. :P
|
'Two-thousand ten' for me. Saying 'twenty-ten' does sound slightly odd (to me, anyway). I think someone on CNN or something mentioned how we didn't say 'one-thousand nine-hundred ninety-eight' for 1998, and so on. But that would seem like a mouthful back then, so saying 'nineteen ninety-eight' worked. 'Two thousand ten' for 2010 doesn't seem like it takes that long to say, so that's what I'm going with.
In any case, Happy New Year 2010 everyone! :D |
In the year 10 when batman was no longer alive a new force arose from the caves...weird. Hmm i think it would be twenty ten.
|
Twenty-ten for me. It's just easier to say, although some of the teens sound weird in that format.
|
I've gotten used to pronouncing the years as numbers for the past 9 years, and I don't see why that should change. I'll keep saying "two thousand and ten". When the years get to something like 2025, 2050, 2070 (God-willing I'll live that long), I'll probably say "twenty twenty five" or something like that. Rolls off the tongue easier than "two thousand and twenty five", don't you think?
|
I pronounce 2010 as "twenty-ten" - it just sounds better to me. Although, I'll probably change that as we get into 2013 because it doesn't sound as good. XD;
|
i shall pronounce it twenty ten
|
Two thousand and ten for me.
I'm not sure why but I just feel that it feels nicer to say than twenty ten.. |
This year I'm going to use Twenty-Ten. I don't know it just sounds different, that's why I'm saying it. ^_^ |
Two thousand and ten for me.
Although I have said it the other way, it was a mistake. =P |
I hate when people say Twenty-Ten, Twenty-Eleven, Twenty-Twelve and etc, but I'm starting to do that myself.
I want to say it Two thousand and ten. |
Every single person in my town in the middle of nowhere says two thousand and ten.
|
I call it "Twenty-Ten" ~ Nick . |
Twenty-Ten, Two thousand and ten is too much effort.
|
apart that it sounds weird I say 0 ten but most of the time it's Twenty-Ten
|
In our country we say it as "Dalawampu't Sampu"...
That's filipino words... :D |
For me it's something along the lines of:
Two thousannnten. Or perhaps, if I'm feeling very lazy, two thousand ten. Two thousand and ten just feels like too much of a mouthful. I will say it in formal conversation, but otherwise I'll shorten it to the 'nn' sound instead of the clear 'and'. I just don't want to say 'twenty ten'. It doesn't sound like a year to me, it's more like a code or just a random two numbers. xX |
i pronounce it two thousand ten.
|
Two-thousand-and-ten. It's gonna take me months to write "2010" on my papers...
|
Twenty/Ten is the only correct way to pronounce it :3
Saying "Two Thousand Ten" is like saying 1999 as "Nineteen Hundred Ninety-Nine". Which was all know is ridiculousness, as its pronounced "Nineteen/Ninety-Nine" |
Twenty Ten all the way. Sounds better. :P
I'm gonna keep writing 2009 on all my papers... takes like a month for me to get used to used, probably more. :P |
