the one with the A.D.
July 4, 2007One night we were watching the History channel when it struck me…
Jenn: What does A.D. stands for?
Yuhei: I forgot. I know it’s Latin.
Jenn: Yeah, B.C. is Before Christ… so A.D. should be…
Yuhei: When I was younger I thought it was After Die.
Jenn: AHAHAHAHAHA! It is so not! But it’s quite logic, isn’t it. Since it refers to the birth of Jesus Christ.
FYI: Anno Domini (LatinĀ : “In the year of (Our) Lord”), abbreviated as AD or A.D., defines an epoch based on the traditionally reckoned year of the conception or birth of Jesus of Nazareth.
I’ve always thought A.D. was after death last time too. Hahaha.
