2010 is still in this decade.

I don't think 2010 is part of the decade. The same as 2000 is part of this decade and not the previous one.


Wrong. When did the 21st century begin? In 2001. Therefore, 2000 is part of the previous decade.

Yes and no. If you want to count decades as you count centuries (21st century, and this would be the 201st decade) then yes, that decade would run from 1/1/2001 to 31/12/2010. But a decade is simply a period of 10 years, it can be used between any period of 10 years. Thus, the 90s is correct, and also would be correct if I said the "'85-'94 decade"

At least I'm correct in a way ! ;)
