To say the Years in Chinese, you have to learn how to say the numbers 1-9 and the word "Year"!

It's very easy!

Formula:
Numbers of the year + Year (Word)

•Year
••nián (ne an)
•••年

When giving the year in a date, each digit should be read individually. In English we would read 1999 as "nineteen ninety-nine" while in Chinese syntax it would be "one nine nine nine year".
The word 'Year' will have to be there after writing the numbers.
