Talk:United Kingdom in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2022

Number of years of absense
There is a difference between number of years since their last and number of years of. Their ended in 2005 (17 years ago) and their  started in 2006 (16 years ago). The text clearly talks about, although we could also change the wording if you insist.

It's easier to understand if the timespan is short: let's say the UK had last participated in 2020. That's two years ago, but it's only one year of absence (in 2021). The same reasoning applies in this case: it's sixteen years of absence (2006–2021). &horbar;Jochem van Hees (talk) 00:21, 10 September 2022 (UTC)
