Let’s start talking about years! There is a whole series of possible phrases and constructions that can be utilized to refer to a year, multiple years or a time span of years.
If you’re comfortable with talking about years, how about you also check out our adverbs of time? You should also check out our page on questions of time (e.g. Kuinka kauan? Mihin mennessä? Moneltako?). We also have separate pages about the clock, the days of the week and the months.
