I prefer Twenty-Ten, but it will be hard to stop saying Two Thousand and "x"

Also, what are we going to call this decade? The "oughts" the "oughties" ?

I guess I will find out in about 30 days.

What do you guys think?

I will be saying two thousand and ten. Some people call 2009 twenty oh nine.

I prefer to say twenty-ten. Its easier and coincides with the 19's such as 1950, 1968, 1996, etc.

I'll use Twenty-Ten in some instances and Two-Thousand Ten in others.

I wonder how Dick Clark will pronounce it.

I think that I will be using both for a while.

Twenty Ten is a lot easier to day than Two Thousand & Ten, and after all we didn't call 1999 One Thousand, Nine Hundred and Ninety Nine, we called it Nineteen Ninety Nine etc.

2010 will be the first year that pronouncing the 2-0 as "twenty" and allowing it to make sense. The numbers twenty and ten are both used in every day english. "0"-"9", "0"-"8".. what have you... are not commonly used. We could have said Twenty-Nine, but that would be 29 and not 2009.

I believe Twenty-Ten will become the standard.

In the conversations and previews about the film 2012, I almost exclusively heard it pronounced Twenty-Twelve.
