Over to you.

twenty 10 is easier to say but sounds a bit american. Do we refer to the decade as the tenties as well?

 

[Guy Fawkes]

Think they ran a poll somewhere recently and the favourite choice was the 20 10's.

Ten, Eleven and Twelve don't fit though.

 

[Acker79]

Ten, Eleven and Twelve don't fit though.

But it is the decade primarily made up of teen numbers.
