Dear teachers,

Can you tell me the differences bewteen 1800s and 1800's and until and till?

Just I have encountered with 1800s and 1800's but I do think they are the same. Am I right?

Thanks beforehand

Regards

1800's is the older way of punctuating it. 1800s is the newer way of punctuating it. They are the same in meaning, of course.

Personally, I always use 'until'.
