tjugohundratal n

1. (usually in the definite "tjugohundratalet") the 2000s (the years 2000 to 2099)

• tvåtusental(et) is normally used as a synonym. However, only the years 2000 to 2999 are referred to as tvåtusentalet (“the two thousands”) while the years 2000 to 2099 are referred to as tjugohundratalet (“the twenty hundreds”) to avoid confusion. To avoid confusion between the years 2000 to 2099 or 2999 and the years 2000 to 2009, the ten-year-period is referred to as tjugo-nollnolltalet (“the twenty-ohohs”), or simply nollnolltalet (“the ohohs; the 00s”).
