2010

[Tiberius Jim]

Two thousand and ten.

2010 is a single number, it's not 20:10 or 20.10 or anything else, it's 2010.

It's like calling 23 "Two-Three".

So did you call 1999, 'Nineteen hundred and ninety-nine' or just 'nineteen ninety-nine'?

Exactly. Even Star Trek uses the "twenty-ten" pronunciation. You never hear a character say the year is "twenty-three-thousand-thirty-four".

Not to mention we've used this type of pronunciation during the entire 20th century (nineteen-oh-one, nineteen-ten, nineteen-eighty, etc)

2010 is a single number, it's not 20:10 or 20.10 or anything else, it's 2010.

It's like calling 23 "Two-Three".

For those that work in numbers, 23 is often read as "two-three."
