1970-1979:
Do you write 1970's, 1970s, or '70s?
Which are correct?
Thanks.

You see it all three ways. But many authorities these days say that it should be without the apostrophe, because it is just an ordinary plural, and we don't need or use apostrophes for ordinary plurals. _________________ You live a new life for every new language you speak. -Czech proverb |
