9 de nov. de 2007 · If "1980's" is used, it indicates possession and only for the year 1980. If 1980s' is used, it indicates possession for the entire decade. If "1980s" is used, it's referring to all the years in that decade but not in a possessive manner.
Boglin007. • 8 mo. ago. Both are correct ways of pluralizing “1980,” but “1980’s” is an older style and I don’t believe any style guides recommend the apostrophe these days.

21 de mar. de 2013 · Which is correct to Write 1980s or 1980's? The correct way to refer to a decade is "1980s", without the apostrophe. The confusion arises because the century part of the decade is often omitted, which does require an apostrophe like this: "the '80s".

11 de ago. de 2016 · "The '80s" is short for "the 1980s" in most contexts, though if one were writing a history of the 19th century, it might be short for "the 1880s." As you can tell from the previous paragraph, I don't use an apostrophe for the plural.
