In Portuguese we just say the full number (two thousand and ten), but it seems you guys have way too many ways of saying the same thing... so let the voting begin!
Edit: If your native language is not English, feel free to post how you say it in your language. |

True. It's crazy to think most of us will live through a new set of 20's, 30's, 40's, 50's, and 60's :eyespop:
I say 20-10. Who has time to say two thousand and ten? :p |

We seem to have more votes than responses in this thread. I'd be interested (as I'm sure Lira is) to see the votes and how they differ between cultures.
More specifically, I'd like to see if modern American English is showing it's favour for laziness again, compared to other countries :p |

20-10, unless I'm in a formal setting. Then I will say two thousand and ten.
I'll also bet that this is true for most people. |
