西暦: AD. The Japanese noun '西暦 (せいれき)' refers to the Gregorian calendar system, commonly used internationally. It is often used to denote years in the Western calendar, similar to 'Anno Domini' (AD) in English. For example: The year 2023 in the Gregorian calendar is 2023年 in 西暦「2023年は西暦2023年です」(にせんにじゅうさんねんはせいれきにせんにじゅうさんねんです). The event occurred in 1999 AD「その出来事は西暦1999年に起こりました」(そのできごとはせいれきせんきゅうひゃくきゅうじゅうきゅうねんにおこりました). This term is essential when discussing historical or international dates in Japanese.
