Why do people say after death of Jesus Christ instead of Anno domini?

Anno Domini does not mean "after" the death of Jesus. It is a Latin term that means "The Year of Our Lord." So ostensibly the modern Gregorian calendar has its start date anchored on the birth year of Jesus (although it is generally held that Jesus was born 4-7 years before the 1st year of the Gregorian calendar).
