"Мне 20 лет" or "20 года"? In English, we always use "year" or "years" when speaking about age. But in Russian, it’s more nuanced. Look: 🎀 Год → Used with numbers ending in 1 (except 11): - 21 год (twenty-one year) - 31 год (thirty-one year) 🎀 Года → Used with numbers ending in 2, 3, 4 (except 12–14): - 2 года (two years) - 33 года (thirty-three years) 🎀 Лет → For numbers ending in 0, 5–9, and 11–19: - 5 лет (five years) - 11 лет (eleven years) - 20 лет (twenty years) 🪩 Exceptions: 12–14 always use "лет": 12 лет (twelve years) But: 22 года (twenty-two years)! 💎 Examples: ✔ Мне 21 год (ends with 1, not 11) ✔ Ему 33 года (ends with 3) ✔ Ей 25 лет (ends with 5)
