Learn English – What does `in the decade after 1994` mean

meaning

Does it mean from year 1995 to year 1999 or from 1995 to 2004?

Can you explain some more usages of the word decade. Thanks.

Radiation therapy was used less frequently in the decade after 1994
than in the prior.

Best Answer

The only sense which could be expected is from 1994 or 1995 to 2004.

If someone meant 1995-1999 then they would have to say something like "the rest of the decade after 1995."
