Twenty-Twelve, or Two-Thousand-Twelve ?

[markb90]

In Europe, twenty- twelve could mean Dec. 20, but the problem with "two thousand twelve" is it's a little awkward to say for some people soo...

Twenty twelve. We didn't say "one thousand nine hundred eighty nine" for 1989, we said "nineteen eighty-nine". Same principle.

Two-thousand-twelve. I don't know why I say it like that.

[Magnum Mike]

I find myself saying it both ways, two-thousand and twelve, and twenty-twelve.

[tasmtairy]
