What would you pronounce the years 2010-2099? I'd say "two thousand x" since it sounds better that way.

2 Thousand X, because that's how i've always pronounced it, although when we get to 2010 I'll say twenty 10
Two thousand X and will remain that way.
More likely Two-Thousand X. But everyone has their own ways of pronouncing it.
Thinking about this, right now I say Two thousand nine but when we get to 2010 and over I think there will be a lot more times where I will say twenty ten. Its definetly easier than saying two hundren nine or something. 
What's the "X"?
Replace the "X" with the number we're in. In 2010, replace that with "10".Yoshi1 said:
Ok. So then, I say it "Two-thousand X".vipsoccermaster said:
I'm with SZ, I've never cared to think about this and I say 2 thousand X, but when the time comes I might end up saying twenty X.
i say Two Thousand "X" because it sound better like JXT said.
Probably Twenty X because its easier and its what everyone on the TV has been saying.
I will always say two-thousand x.
