What does A.D. and B.C. stand for.?
Anno Domini (Latin: (In)The year of (Our) Lord[1]), abbreviated as AD or A.D., defines an epoch based on the traditionally reckoned year of the conception or birth of Jesus of Nazareth. AD is also an abbreviation for Christian Era.[2] Similarly, Before Christ (from the Ancient Greek "Christos" or "Anointed One", referring to Jesus), abbreviated as BC or B.C., is used in the English language to denote years before the start of this epoch.

Reply:BC does stand for "before Christ." AD actually stands for the Latin phrase "anno domini" which means "in the year of our Lord
Reply:B.C. means Before Christ (now sometimes referred to as


BCE, or Before Christian Era)


A.D. is something many folks don't know. It is the initials


of the Latin words Anno Domini, which mean


"In the year of (our) Lord". It is a Latin construction called


the "ablative of time at which"


I'm not sure how this question got into the mathematics


section, but I do hope this helps.
