📦 Counting Years (The Basics)

Look at how the text describes contracts. We put the number and the word 'year' together to describe the deal:

  • One-year contract (Short)

Quick Note: When we use these as a description before the word 'contract', we don't add an 's' to year.

Wrong: Three-years contract ❌ Right: Three-year contract ✅
