When does the decade start?


It starts in 2020. I don't care if there was no "year 0". You can't call it the "20s" if '20 itself isn't counted in it.

Millennium started on 2000.
From 2000-2009, that's 10 years.
From 2010 to 2019, that's another 10 years.

Cmon bruh, who are you fooling when you say it starts on 2021

The 2020s begins in 2020.

The 203rd decade of the common era begins in 2021.

Literally nobody uses the second convention for decades. Thus, "the decade" by standard convention begins in 2020. This isn't even up to debate.

I literally never said it starts on 2021. I just made this topic because people recently have been claiming it actually starts in 2021. In fact, look back to the Poll archives on this very website and there was a poll leading up the new millennium where people are actually quite vicious about the fact that they felt the millennium starts in 2001.

You could argue there was a year zero. The year before calenders where invented.

It should be 2021, but it's not worth arguing over.

I'd rather be correct than popular, so whatever.

2020 because 2020 is in the 20s

The 2nd number (from the right) is what indicates the decade
