If the decade from 1980 to 1981 was called the 80's (the eighties), and the decade from 1990 to 1999 was called the 90's (the nineties), then the decade from the year 2000 to 2009 should be called the naughties! (O's!)
However, this expression has not been universally adopted and it hasn't fallen into common usage.
The decade from 1900 to 1909 was called the nineteen hundreds. So the next logical designation for the current decade would be the twenty hundreds!
This seems quite cumbersome. It doesn't roll off the tongue, and, as yet, no-one seems to be using it. Perhaps we'll have to wait and see what this current decade will be called in some future time period! dyl_do: Just about everyone I know calls this period the noughties... Those who don't just call this the 20-ohs... But then again, I know some odd people!
