What is the correct way of saying the years like 1900 1600 (with double zero at teh end) in English?
I was told that 1900 is possible to say like "nineteen thousand" is it true? Thanks!

Question

Answer

nineteen hundred   sixteen hundred  But!:  two thouand

Answer

1900 could be pronounced as "nineteen hundred". "nineteen thousand" would be 19,000. As for the correct way it varies based on the context. I suppose officially 1900 would be "one thousand nine hundred" but most people would just say "nineteen hundred".

Answer

The correct way is: Nineteen hundred and no you should not say nineteen thousand, as people will not understand you. 1600 = sixteen hundred.

In a sentence: "In the year 1900, the world was introduced to the world's first underground train system"

Answer

Nineteen hundred, the correct one I think..
