    Yipe, French presentation in the works!

    But how do you say 2002? Not in numbers, obviously, but is there any special order to say the numbers, or do you just say "two thousand and two"?

    [​IMG] Wildfire has it right. Took french for 7 years, yet numbers and a had full of words are all I can remember off hand. This is from my memory and confirmed by two high school french books plus online resources, (online resources have saved my ass in the past when it came to learning spanish...not sure why you didn't check out an online translater first?)

    Just a little clarification: it is not "deux mille et deux", but very close; you just need to take out the "et".

    So it is said "deux mille deux". Hence, "nous sommes en deux mille deux.

    If not, I am wrong every day of my life, since French is obviously my first language. Hope that helps!
