two thousand ten.

I announce as Sultanic decree that it is "two-thousand and ten". "Two-thousand ten" will also work as a slightly shortened form.

Anyone who says differently is an infidel.

This. But if you said one-thousand nine-hundred ninety-nine, then go for two thousand ten.

Mathematically, it should not have an "and." 2010 =/= 2000.1
