Years
A year is the time it takes for the Earth to complete one orbit around the Sun, approximately 365.25 days. Years are crucial for measuring longer periods, marking significant life events, planning, and tracking seasonal changes. They are the foundation of calendars, used to plan activities, record historical events, and organize our understanding of time.
Decades
A decade is a period of ten years, often used to categorize and reflect upon historical, cultural, and social changes. Decades help us understand the passage of time over more extended periods, allowing us to observe trends, developments, and shifts in various fields such as fashion, technology, and politics. They are also used in long-term planning and forecasting.
