Datum auf Deutsch
Hi everyone!
What's the correct expression?
1. Im Jahre 1990 = (I think it's not correct whereas Jahre is plural so it would be written: In der Jahre 1990(I'm not so sure!)).
2. Im Jahr 1990 = (I think that's the correct one because we have "das Jahr"
that changes to Dativ plus the Lokalpräposition "in" = In dem Jahr == Im Jahr)
I'm confused because I saw them written in these two ways and I don't know which is correct, so I decided to ask for help!
please help me! thanks!! sorry I made a mistake, in this case above "in" is not a Lokalpräposition,
because it indicates time, not place...

Answer

Du hast vergessen:
3. 1990 (Du kannst ein Datum auch nur mit dem Jahr beginnen.)

Alles ist richtig. 
Everything would be correct.

1. "Im Jahre 1990 habe ich..." 
(wenn es alt oder länger zurück liegend klingen soll)
(if it should sound older or further back)

2. "Im Jahr 1990 habe ich..."

3. "1990 habe ich..."
(einfach)
(simple)

Answer

Achtung:
1990 ≠ Eintausendneunhundertneunzig
1990 = „Neunzehnhundert Neunzig“
Aber: 2009 = „ZweitausendNeun“
